Mitochondrial DNA phylogenetic and time tree. Bayesian time tree obtained with BEAST of 57 mitochondrial genomes of Hermetia illucens deprived of D-Loop regions, aligned with MAFFT and rooted with Exaireta spinigera. The scale is in millions of years. A break in scale is made at the root level. The colours of the names correspond to the haplotypes determined with the CO1 sequences (Fig. 1). Commercial individuals are marked with an asterisk. The green circles come from the ML phylogenetic tree of the 57 mitochondrial DNA sequences of Hermetia illucens, deprived of D-Loop regions. MAFFT was used to align the sequences, 500 Bootstrap replicas were performed. The outgroup used is Exaireta spinigera (Stratiomyidae). Bootstrap values are indicated by a green circle when they are > 0.95 (the separate trees can be seen in Additional file 7)
