Actually P. comanche was originally described as a subspecies of P. occidentalis so would still be a part of the occidentalis group. There are known hybrid locations of P. barbatus and P. occidentalis in Arizona so a hybrid is possible but I think not as likely in this case. The species group /complex thing can get very confusing at times. And I cant always keep up with it as it seems to change with the wind. However if you wish you can send me a few worker specimens and I will take a look at them for you.
