Extra information

An alignment of 168 sequences of mitochondrial DNA of Bombus cryptarum reveals 29 haplotypes. A median network shows five distinct clusters, haplogroups (HG) A-E, which can be defined by diagnostic characters. Four of these HGs can be assigned to well-known taxa: HG-A = B. cryptarum cryptarum; HG-B = B. cryptarum florilegus; HG-D = B. cryptarum albocinctus; and HG-E = B. cryptarum moderatus. Haplogroup C represents a new taxon B. cryptarum pallidocinctus in the rank of a subspecies. This new subspecies is described. The geographic distribution of the Eurasiatic taxa is described and the implications of geographic distribution and median network for the phylogeny are discussed.

Ein Alignment von 168 Sequenzen mitochondrialer DNA von Bombus cryptarum liefert 29 Haplotypen. Ein Median- Network zeigt fünf klar abgrenzbare Cluster, die Haplogruppen (HG) A-E, die durch diagnostische Positionen definiert werden. Vier dieser HG lassen sich bekannten Taxa zuordnen HG-A = B. cryptarum cryptarum, HG-B = B. cryptarum florilegus, HG-D = B. cryptarum albocinctus, und HG-E = B. cryptarum moderatus. Die Haplogruppe C entspricht einem neuen Taxon B. cryptarum pallidocinctus im Rang einer Unterart. Diese neue Unterart wird beschrieben. Die Verbreitung der Eurasiatischen Taxa wird untersucht und die Folgerungen aus Median-Network und geographischer Verbreitung für die mögliche Phylogenie werden diskutiert.
