(2021), C. pruni is a complex of two cryptic species, informally referred to as ' C. pruni A' and ' C. pruni B', which can be distinguished by molecular characters. Specimens from Bulgaria have not yet been identified as either A or B. Only C. pruni B is known from the Balkans (Sauvion et al. 2021).
