Hi Gregg, my computer crashed, so I would have to look up that paper describing Kenneryli. But, its not a clear species, in fact, the authors called them semi species. As the two characters that are different, the azygous and loreals. Had a difference, one was clinal, which indicates, they are the same, the other was not, which indicate, they are different.
But both these animals and Gloydi, are old style morphology. Which means, as soon as someone applies Mtdna to this group, it will change all of this. So there is no sense arguing about what is no longer valid. My bet is, there will be many many species in this group. Best wishes
