Neues Konzept: die Art ist gegenüber SISF-2 enger gefasst, da mindestens ein Taxon davon abgetrennt wurden. A. cruentus L. kommt in der Schweiz wahrscheinlich nur adventiv oder als Gartenflüchtling vor und ist kaum eingebürgert. Die meisten Beobachtungen von A. cruentus L. beziehen sich, aufgrund von Verwechslungen, auf A. hypochondriacus L.
