Subspecies of Merodon telmateia

Based on genetic and morphometric data, at least three groups of geographically isolated populations among Merodon telmateia specimens were identified, which we here designate as subspecies. The taxonomic position of the population from Iran remains unresolved due to a lack of available material.
