 Comments
       
  Comment: Peck & Cook (2002:739) note 'We can find no features to clearly separate Palearctic from Nearctic specimens to support the concept of the North American populations being separate subspecies S. watsoni hornarius (Blanchard). Because the species is not in Alaska we think there is presently no direct genetic contact between populations across the Bering Strait. This would support the use of the subspecies name if a later study shows that there are morphological or other differences.' It does not appear that those conditions have been met yet, though this could change
