Members of this genus are difficult to identify in part because of a shortage of useful external features, and in part because the male and female genitalia, so useful in distinguishing between species groups, are not useful within each group. Moreover, some of the characters traditionally used to separate the species have been found in large samples to vary extensively. Some samples are a mixture of combinations from extreme patterns considered as different species; being impossible to demonstrate if those populations are hybrids or simply polymorphs, while in other putative species, allopatric populations exhibit no evident differences. In the
<emphasis italics="true" pageId="9" pageNumber="28">labialis</emphasis>
group in southern South America, the species limits are especially difficult to assess probably because the group is young and composed of species with a great power of dispersal. Without direct evidence of the state of gene flow between known populations, it is almost impossible to testify in favor of the reproductive isolation of each species described or in other cases to designate subspecies. I will follow a criterion
<pageBreakToken pageId="10" pageNumber="29" start="start">with</pageBreakToken>
a practical value, so maybe for some species, taxonomic determination will denote unintentionally a combination of extreme characters shared by more than one biological species.
