A new subspecies of Leptidea sinapis from Northern Iran, discovered by means of DNA barcoding, is described as Leptidea sinapis tabarestanassp. nov. The new subspecies is allopatric with respect to other populations of L. sinapis and is genetically distinct, appearing as a well-supported sister clade to all other populations in COI-based phylogenetic reconstructions. Details on karyotype, genitalia, ecology and behaviour for the new subspecies are given and a biogeographical speciation scenario is proposed.

隐蔽物种复合体中更多隐藏的多样性：来自伊朗北部的芥菜亚种（鳞翅目、粉蝶科）的一个新亚种

 通过 DNA 条形码发现的来自伊朗北部的 Leptidea sinapis 新亚种被描述为 Leptidea sinapis tabarestanassp。十一月 新亚种相对于其他 L. sinapis 种群是异域的，并且在遗传上是不同的，在基于 COI 的系统发育重建中作为所有其他种群的良好支持的姐妹进化枝出现。给出了新亚种的核型、生殖器、生态学和行为的详细信息，并提出了生物地理物种形成情景。
