DNA sequences from a portion of the mitochondrial COI gene were used to clarify phylogenetic relationships among Japanese species in the genus Cercopithifilaria. Sequences were determined from seven Japanese species, five (C shohoi, C multicauda, C minuta, C tumidicervicata and C. bulboidea) from the serow (Capricornis crispus F. Bovidae) and two (C longa and C crassa) from the sika deer (Cervus nippon nippon F. Cervidae). No base substitutions were observed between C bulboidea and C. longa, suggesting that recent host switching of a lineage of C bulboidea between bovid and cervid hosts gave rise to C longa. In phylogenetic trees inferred using a variety of methods, the morphologically ancestral type, C bulboidea, appeared as a derived species. C multicauda was found to be basal in the analyses. It seems therefore that C multicauda is the most primitive out of the seven species. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
