Abstract
⺠Identification problems ensue when sequences underestimate within-species variation. ⺠Underestimates are common with population substructure and recently diverged species. ⺠A single sample from another divergent locality increases correct assignments. ⺠Simulated data and empirical data from tiger moths illustrate these effects. ⺠Broad geographical sampling and a Bayesian approach to species delimitation is advocated.
