Molecular phylogenetic trees were constructed using maximum parsimony, maximum likelihood and Bayesian inference methods. Results from these methods revealed similar topologies with recognizable relationships among subclades. The phylogenetic relationship of four species groups of subgenus Singhardina Mahmood from China is discussed for the first time. The results show that Singhardina Mahmood forms a single lineage representing a monophyletic group. The Eurhadina （Singhardina） rubra species group newly proposed in this study is likely the most basal species group within Singhardina Mahmood. The E. （Singhardina） robusta species group is the sister group of the E. （Singhardina） mamata species group. Molecular evidence supports including the E. （Singhardina） vittata species group in the E. （Singhardina） punjabensis species group.展开更多
