Genetic data: Two different haplotypes were found in Croatian Ch. multangula specimen. The one present in individuals CROB260 and CROB517 is shared with a number of individuals from Germany (FBLMV003-09, GBLAA2027-15, GBLAB307-13, GBLAD973-14) and individuals from Austria (LEATB426-13, PHLAG887-12) and France (LENOA107-11). Another one shared between CROB518 and CROB519 was also recorded in samples from Austria (ABOLA071-14), Germany (GWORZ513-10) and Italy (LEATB599-13, LEATB600-13, PHLAB1179-10, PHLSA585-11). Remaining sample which clustered within Ch. multangula clade originates from Germany (GWORK401-09). Intraspecific distances within this taxon are low being in range 0.2-0.3%.
