Species Composition of Wood Whites of the Genus Leptidea Billberg (Lepidoptera, Pieridae) in Northeastern Europe Based on DNA Barcoding
Entomological Review(2023)
Abstract
The distribution of wood whites of the genus Leptidea in the northeast of European Russia was analyzed by DNA barcoding, using a mitochondrial COI gene fragment 658 bp long. The presence of three species in the region was confirmed: L. sinapis (Linnaeus, 1758), L. morsei (Fenton, 1881) and L. juvernica Williams, 1946. Speciesspecific sites were identified in the studied nucleotide sequence.
