Taxonomy Notes: This taxon was primarily created to record the indistinguishable V. pearsalli and V. obsoleta (and certain individuals of V. duodecemlineata). The is no current way to identify them from photographs, and DNA barcode evidence suggests there may be multiple species. However, the separation is slim, though distinct, and they may be lumped in the future. The current identity of these species is uncertain.
