“…As a comparison, for the same gene, Danforth et al. () found a minimum of 4% divergence between two cryptic species, Halictus ligatus Say and Halictus poeyi Lepeletier, and Kruse & Sperling () found 1.5–2.5% divergence between two closely related species, Archips argyrospila Walker and Archips goyerana Kruse.…”

“…In the mitochondrial compartment, we found no shared haplotype between Europe and any of the two other continents, but we still found <0.5% mean divergence (i.e., the number of nucleotidic substitutions) between the COI sequences in Asian and European populations. As a comparison, for the same gene, Danforth et al (1998) found a minimum of 4% divergence between two cryptic species, Halictus ligatus Say and Halictus poeyi Lepeletier, and Kruse & Sperling (2001) found 1.5-2.5% divergence between two closely related species, Archips argyrospila Walker and Archips goyerana Kruse. Second, both haplotype networks were well connected and haplotypes were separated from each other by only few mutations, suggesting that they all belong to the same or very closely related taxa.…”

Specifying species boundaries is often tricky, because advanced biomolecular analyses can reveal that morphologically similar individuals in fact belong to distinct species. This is frequently the case when populations previously considered as a single polyphagous taxon prove to consist of several genetically distinct taxa using different resources, e.g., among insect parasitoids. Macrocentrus cingulum Brischke (Hymenoptera: Braconidae), a parasitoid of the genus Ostrinia (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) feeding on various host plants across the world, is one of them. In Western Europe, M. cingulum has never been found in Ostrinia nubilalis (Hübner) populations feeding on maize, although it heavily parasitizes sympatric Ostrinia scapulalis Walker populations feeding on mugwort. In contrast, it contributes to pest control of Ostrinia furnacalis Guenée feeding on maize in Asia and O. nubilalis feeding on maize in America, suggesting that European and Asian M. cingulum populations might form two distinct taxa. We tested this hypothesis by conducting phylogenetic and population genetic analyses based on two mitochondrial and two nuclear genes, on 97 M. cingulum individuals sampled in Asia, USA, and Europe. Our analyses not only suggest that all sampled M. cingulum probably belong to the same species, but also show a significant genetic differentiation between individuals originating from Europe on the one hand and Asia/USA on the other, which correlates with infestation patterns. Moreover, they show that American specimens are closely related to Asian ones, consistent with historical records about M. cingulum introductions into the USA in the 1920s and 1930s to control expanding O. nubilalis populations. Combining these results with what is known about the evolutionary history within the genus Ostrinia, we offer a candidate evolutionary scenario that is amenable to future empirical testing.

“…However, the amount of sequence divergence in COI at the interspecific level within lepidopteran species complexes ranges from 0.1-0.6% (0.4% average) in ermine moths Yponomeuta (Sperling et al 1995), 0-3.6% (2.1% average) in Choristoneura (Sperling and Hickey 1994), and 0.1-3.7% (2.2% average) in Feltia (Sperling et al 1996). Divergences of less than 1% and up to to 2.5% divergence in COI was reported for sister species of torticid moths of the genus Archips (Kruse and Sperling 2001). Higher levels of variation in interspecific mitochondrial DNA divergences was demonstrated for the one of the most well studied species groups of the genus Papilio, the P. machaon complex, with values ranging from Ͻ1% to 8% (Sperling and Harrison 1994).…”

“…The mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase gene subunit one (COI) was chosen as a marker, as this gene has repeatedly proven to be useful in resolving species-level taxonomic problems in closely related lepidopterans (e.g. Kruse & Sperling 2001;Nice & Shapiro 2001;Õunap et al 2005). Moreover, a 658 bp fragment of this particular gene has been chosen as a standard marker for metazoans in the recently introduced approach of DNA barcoding, a universal bioinformation system for the easy and accurate recognition of known taxa and the discovery of undescribed taxa (Hebert et al 2003a;Blaxter 2004).…”

External morphological differences were found between Tasmanian and mainland Australian specimens of what was previously considered a single species, the Redlined Geometrid, Crypsiphona ocultaria (Donovan). Examination of genitalia showed constant differences, suggesting that Tasmanian and mainland Australian populations represent distinct species. This hypothesis was tested using DNA sequences from the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI) gene and nuclear elongation factor 1-alpha (EF-1a) gene. Tasmanian Crypsiphona Meyrick populations were found to represent a distinct species, described here as C. tasmanica sp. nov. The results show that a phylogeny-based approach allows the delimitation of C. ocultaria (Donovan) and C. tasmanica sp. nov., but distance-based delimitation is problematic due to substantial overlap in intra-and interspecific genetic distances. Using nucleotide data in character-based species delimitations might be possible for discriminating between C. ocultaria and C. tasmanica, but our current knowledge does not allow the assignment of characters required for this purpose.
