A lot of the ones that settled Albania and Greece have been assimilated into Albanians and Greeks. According to one historian he believes they are descendants of Romanized Dardanians that were pushed south at one point by the Slavs.

Very similar to Albanians but even more Southern shifted. You can easily find light Albanians, but with Aromanians it is really rare. Black hair, olive skin tend to be the norm

Vlachs are usually stereotyped as swarthy. According to research their language has similarities with Albanian. Their origin is kind of mysterious though. They were mentioned in Kosovo and across the Balkans. Should be more DNA test on them to confirm how much Roman imperial blood they have.

The historian Noel Malcolm considers them the original inhabitants of Dardania that were Romanized.
