The position of the Microgecko population from Iraq in the context of the phylogenetic tree, haplotype network and geography. A. Bayesian tree reconstructed from the dataset of mtDNA (cyt b) sequences of Microgecko helenae complex (Gholamifard et al. 2019). Numbers above the branches show posterior probabilities/bootstrap support values resulting from BA and ML analyses respectively. Each terminal branch represents GenBank accession number; B. 95% parsimony haplotype network of M. helenae fasciatus clade sequences. Small black circles are missing node haplotypes; each line connecting two haplotypes corresponds to one mutation step; colours corresponding with the tree. The geographic position of localities and their sources are presented in Suppl. material 1: Table S1.
