Within the taxonomically challenging genus <jats:italic>Dianthus</jats:italic>, through an integrative approach we tested the taxonomic value of <jats:italic>D. brachycalyx</jats:italic>, a putative species endemic to mountain peaks of the central‐southern Apennines, with respect to the widespread central‐Mediterranean <jats:italic>D. virgineus</jats:italic>. We measured 30 morphological characters in 452 individuals from 25 populations and obtained 3202 single nucleotide polymorphisms using ddRAD‐seq techniques in 394 individuals from 36 populations. For climatic niche comparison, we built a dataset of 348 occurrence points. By comparing morphometric, genetic, and climatic niche data, we showed that <jats:italic>D. brachycalyx</jats:italic> cannot be considered a distinct species. Morphometric separation between the two species is detectable, but high‐elevation populations of <jats:italic>D. virgineus</jats:italic> are similar to <jats:italic>D. brachycalyx</jats:italic>. Genetic analyses revealed that the genetic structure of populations of <jats:italic>D. brachycalyx</jats:italic> and <jats:italic>D. virgineus</jats:italic> is mainly shaped by isolation‐by‐distance, irrespective of their taxonomic attribution. The climatic niches of the two species are overlapping, and the niche differences are just due to different availability of climatic conditions in their ranges. Accordingly, multiple lines of evidence do not support a separation of <jats:italic>D. brachycalyx</jats:italic> from <jats:italic>D. virgineus</jats:italic>, and the former should be considered a heterotypic synonym of the latter.","PeriodicalId":49448,"journal":{"name":"Taxon","volume":"1475 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-07-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141866478","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Taxa from each region form a wellsupported monophyletic clade. However, the species circumscription in Asian <jats:italic>Caryodaphnopsis</jats:italic> remains ambiguous due to few and generally unstable morphological characters used for classification. To address this, we conducted an integrative taxonomy of the Asian clade.

We obtained a well‐resolved phylogeny of the Asian <jats:italic>Caryodaphnopsis</jats:italic>. The first diverged clade consists of three species endemic to lowland forests. The second (largest) clade (eight species in total) mainly occurs in limestone mountain forests and has a double‐layered lower leaf epidermis morphology of type 2 (less complete roomy with closed “roof”) and type 3 (complete roomy with closed “roof”).
