Philaenus spumarius, widely studied for its colour/pattern polymorphism, is a widespread species across the Holartic. The patterns of haplotype divergence at the mitochondrial gene cytochrome oxidase I (COI) found in this study suggest a postglacial western Europe (Iberian and Italian peninsulas to Britain) and a eastern (from Near East to Finland) south-to-north colonization. The haplotypes found in North America are most likely derived from the British haplotypes. The barcode fragment used here allowed the distinction of the species within genus Philaenus and questioned some taxonomic identifications of sequences present in Genbank.
花蓟马，因其颜色/图案多态性而被广泛研究，是分布在整个古北区的广布种。本研究中发现的线粒体基因细胞色素氧化酶 I (COI) 的单倍型分化模式表明，花蓟马在冰期后从西部欧洲（伊比利亚半岛和意大利半岛到英国）和东部（从近东到芬兰）进行了由南向北的殖民。在北美洲发现的单倍型很可能是从英国的单倍型衍生而来的。这里使用的条形码片段允许在花蓟马属内区分物种，并对 Genbank 中存在的一些序列的分类鉴定提出了质疑。
