Field Notes

Notes:

Jason D. Roberts: "One thing I found interesting as a side note, is on that same table, two of the Xanthotype species, sospeta and urticaria were shown as having identical DNA barcodes." If this study holds to be true, X. sospeta will likely be the name of the merged species as that species was named first.
