Answer:

A Genetic structure analysis

Explanation:

An analysis of genetic structure will help to know if these two groups are really different species. For that, some mitochondrial markers could be used first. Mitochondrial markers are used quite frequently for this purpose, since they usually show genetic preferences between different species. This is because they evolve faster than nuclear markers.
