Fig 1. Comparison of maximum within species distance (Max-WSD; X-axis) and minimum between species distance (Min-BSD, Y-axis) of non-Aphidiinae (aphelinid/hyperparasitoid) and Aphidiinae parasitoids for COI, 16S and 18S gene sequences.

The percentages of species-pairs which have a Min-BSD smaller than the Max-WSD (“No barcoding gap”) and a Min-BSD smaller than the overall Max-WSD (“Min-BSD ≤ overall Max-WSD”) are shown. Points above the diagonal represent cases where the species pairs have barcoding gap.
