Two European species are recognised and characterised within the traditional species concept, based initially on DNA barcoding but with supporting, although slight and sometimes unreliable, morphological differences. is described and a neotype is designated for Herrich-Schäffer, 1838. Specimens from the Russian Far East were also DNA barcoded and were found to belong to a new species distinct from the two European taxa. The two European species were found to use different lithosiine hosts.
