Abstract
The phylogeographic analysis of Stylodipus telum was performed based on cytochrome b mitochondrial gene. Two westernmost subspecies, S.t. falzfeini and S.t. turovi, both formed independent monophyletic clades, but the genetic distance between them clearly indicates that neither should be treated as a separate species. Individuals from remote populations of S.t. falzfeini mix together and do not have a clear phylogeographic structure, which could indicate a recent panmixia within the subspecies. Populations in Kherson Region are under threat due to the ongoing Russian invasion.
