Genetic differentiation and speciation among four Phyllotreta species (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae)
1998-08-01
Abstract excerpt
Among the four closely related Phyllotreta species P. dilatata Thomson, 1866, P. flexuosa (Illiger, 1794), P. ochripes (Curtis, 1837) and P. tetrastigma (Comolli, 1837) several systematic problems occur due to the existence of colour pattern variation and morphological similarity. All four species feed on Brassicaceae, but P. tetrastigma, P. flexuosa and P. dilatata are monophagous in the field, whereas P. ochripe...
