Molecular phylogeny of south Indian Aphthona species (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae: Galerucinae: Alticini) with evidence for colour polymorphism

Phylogenetic relationships among southern Indian Aphthona species using the cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 mitochondrial gene (COX1 or COI) is reported. This study confirms colour polymorphism in Aphthona: A. tamila and A. glochidionae; A. marataka and A. macarangae, respectively, could be confirmed...

Zusammenfassung:Phylogenetic relationships among southern Indian Aphthona species using the cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 mitochondrial gene (COX1 or COI) is reported. This study confirms colour polymorphism in Aphthona: A. tamila and A. glochidionae; A. marataka and A. macarangae, respectively, could be confirmed as colour morphs. Aphthona phyllanthae is the most diverged taxon according to the genetic distance.
