The appalachiana species group 
This group is seen as a naturally based and closely related phyletic 
unit. It is based on A. appalachiana, the most widespread species in 
both lowland and montane regions. Progressive modification of the 
relatively simple aedeagus (assumed to be generalized and pleiso- 
typic) in the nominate species could readily produce the other 
aedeagal types known in the group.
