Mossion ym. 2025: ”The B. lunaria group radiation was most probably driven by the Pleistocene climatic shifts. For the first time, we show that ecological drivers might have played a role in the diversification of this group, rather than polyploidization. Furthermore, the B. lunaria group has greater species-level diversity than previously assumed, and we suspect that further cryptic species might await discovery, especially in the B. neolunaria clade.”
