(a) Schematic 18S-based phylogenetic tree of the Chlorophyceae showing the position of sequences assigned to Jenufa minuta, (b) Jenufa/Golenkinia-clades in detail shown as a section of the full 18S rDNA ML-phylogenetic tree (Figure S1 in Supplementary Material), (c) world map with dots representing regions where Jenufa sequences were detected, and (d) BioNJ-tree based on partial 18S sequences (hypervariable regions V8 and V9). Colors in figures (c) and (d) indicate three geographical regions where Jenufa occurs (orange—southeast Asia, green—south and Latin America, blue—Europe). Names in bold represent specimens analysed as both partial- and full-length 18S rDNA sequences.
