Haldea striatula: Comments
Comment:
'Originally placed in the novel genera (Haldea striatula and V. valeriae) by Baird and Girard (1853), the former was submerged within the Virginia by Garman (1883). There have since been a number of studies supporting or rejecting this move (for a review, see Rossman and Wallach (1991)), including allozyme data that lends support to original designation (Lawson, 1985), however no taxonomic changes have been formally accepted. To date DNA sequence data has only been published for one species, leaving this taxonomic change untested in a modern phylogenetic framework.' (McVay and Carstens, 2013)
