See Kuramoto, 1980, Bull. Fukuoka Univ. Educ., Nat. Sci., 30: 61-64, for discussion of relationships among species. Nishizawa, Kurabayashi, Kunihara, Sano, Fujii, and Sumida, 2011, Mol. Phylogenet. Evol., 59: 139-147, reported on the mtDNA phylogenetics of the species as did Pyron and Wiens, 2011, Mol. Phylogenet. Evol., 61: 543-583, in their molecular tree based on Genbank sequences.
