How Phylogenies Inferred from 46 Mitochondrial Genomes Informed the Systematics of the Australasian Genus of Ticks, Bothriocroton, with the Description of Three New Species

Background: We revised the taxonomy and identification of the species of the genus Bothriocroton in light of entire mitochondrial genomes and nuclear rRNA genes, scanning electron microscopy, and light microscopy. Methods: (i) phylogenetic trees inferred from entire mitochondrial...
