Zopyrion ( Zopyrion ) thyas Evans, 1953

Zopyrion ( Zopyrion) thyas Evans, 1953 View in CoL is a species distinct from Zopyrion ( Zopyrion) subvariegata Hayward, 1942

Genomic analysis of a topotype of Zopyrion subvariegata thyas Evans, 1953 (type locality in Peru: Amazonas, Chachapoyas), together with another specimen from Cajamarca, Peru, reveals that they are genetically differentiated from Zopyrion subvariegata subvariegata Hayward, 1942 (type locality in Ecuador) at the species level ( Fig. 116 View Fig ); e.g., their COI barcodes differ by 5.3% (35 bp). Therefore, we propose that Zopyrion ( Zopyrion) thyas Evans, 1953 , stat. nov. is a species distinct from Zopyrion ( Zopyrion) subvariegata Hayward, 1942 .
