Neighbour-joining tree of the sequences of the species of the Colletes succinctus group obtained in this study (n = 21, marked in red) and reference data (n = 47) from BOLD with outgroup and Bootstrap values (1,000 re-samples). The specimens KC469653 and KC469654 in BOLD (marked in green), originally assigned to C. collaris, were later identified as a different species, C. luzhouensis Kuhlmann, 2007, that does not belong to the C. succinctus group. The scale bar represents 0.01 substitutions per site.
