Taxonomical and distribution problems in A. eadyi species group an integrwstive approach combining genetic analyses (mzDNA COI barcoding )with standard morphological anylyses and geometric morphometrics of forewing shape.Three species groups were within A. eadyi distinguished,viz., A.smithi, A.eadyi, and A. banksae,Genetic separation of all three species was confirmed.A. banksae is diagnosed and redescribed.
