Abstract	A phylogenetic analysis of species of Hepatozoon Miller, 1908 was performed using 16 morphological, morphometric and developmental characters. An adeleorin parasite of gastropod molluscs, Klossia helicina Schneider, 1875 and four haemogregarines of other genera, Karyolysus lacertae (Danilewsky, 1886), Cyrilia lignieresi (Laveran, 1906), Desseria myoxocephali (Fantham, Porter & Richardson, 1942) and Haemogregarina balli Paterson & Desser, 1976 were used as the outgroup to 12 species of Hepatozoon. A single most parsimonious interpretation of the data was found, with the resulting cladogram having 28 transformations and a consistency index of 0.75. The proposed phylogeny revealed Hepatozoon as a paraphyletic group. One monophyletic lineage contained 10 of the 12 species of Hepatozoon, including all of those species that undergo gametogenesis and sporogony in the haemocoel of arthropods. Within this lineage, gamonts of those species found in vertebrate leucocytes instead of erythrocytes formed a clade basal to the remainder of the species. Species of Hepatozoon which undergo gametogenesis and sporogonic development in the gut epithelium of acarines, and which produce aflagellate microgametes, as well as the four outgroup taxa of haemogregarines, formed a monophyletic group and were the sister group to the remainder of the species of Hepatozoon. The biological and morphological diversity of these parasites suggests that species of the genus Hepatozoon, which are members of the paraphyletic haemogregarine complex, could be partitioned into at least two genera of adeleorin parasites.
