In a nutshell, the question is: what is Pieris bryoniae? More specifically,
1-Is this taxon a species? or a zonal subspecies / form of napi?
2-are there any works on genetics, etc. later than 2008? and which ones?
3-who flies in Kamchatka-Piegis bryoniae kamtschadalis RÖber, 1907?
PS well, to the heap:
1-what is Pegis pseudorapae?
2-semispecies ??? what is it? "....For the Greater Caucasus Mountains, the subspecies Pieris bryoniae caucasica Verity (1908) is given, which is identified by some experts with another species of the complex, Pieris pseudorapae. According to original data, butterflies of these three phenotypes (napi, bryoniae, and pseudorapae) have never been observed together in the same locality. Several authors have pointed out the sympatry of Pieris napi and Pieris bryoniae in some areas, for example, in the Polar Urals [5]. In this paper, only the taxa napi and bryoniae are accepted as semispecies within the napi complex, since there is evidence of a clear biochemical difference between them [6].... "- Database: Diurnal butterflies (Hesperioidea and Papilionoidea, Lepidoptera) Eastern Europe. II edition. Authors of the database: Igor Georgievich Plyushch, Dmitry Vladimirovich Morgun, Kirill Yevgenyevich Dovgailo, Nikolai Isaakovich Rubin, Igor Albertovich Solodovnikov. 2005-2006.
In the " catalog....Sineva, 2008 " authors of the section-Lvovsky, Churkin, Dubatolov, Morgun; bryoniae-a species; in Koshunov,2002, the same species ? and if it is a view, how does it differ from polymorphic napi?
