Two subspecies of B. flavidus are currently recognized, B. flavidus lutescens ( Pérez, 1890) restricted in the Pyrenees and B. flavidus alpium ( Richards 1928) restricted in the Alps. Our study did not include Pyrenees and Alps specimens to assess the taxonomic relationships of the latter two taxa.
