I think its even more complicated. Tokar suggested based on some pretty complicated morphological details that they were all the same and formally proposed to group the three into a single species. But, I dont think that the governing body of nomenclature (ICZN) has officially accepted his proposal yet. So, they may be both the same species and different. Ah, taxonomy
