Analysis of OTUs at 97% similarity among different developmental stages of H. carpathicus. (A) Venn diagram showing overlaps of OTUs, in which 76 OTUs (core microbial community) were common for each tested stage. (B) Percentage distribution of core microbial community (76 OTU) at phylum level, identified in all developmental stages. Abbreviations: L1 – first-stage larva, L2 – second-stage larva, P – pupa, Im – adult.
