The specimens from Portugal match the description of L. sparsicapillata , a species widely distributed in Europe except for the most northern and eastern parts (Di Sabatino et al. 2010). The sequenced specimens cluster within BOLD: AFN 4501, which includes two specimens from Germany. The p - distance between the latter BIN and its nearest neighboring BOLD: ADF 6063, which include specimens of L. sparsicapillata from Germany, was estimated at 2 %. Distribution. Europe.
