The importance of naming cryptic species and the conservation of endemic subterranean amphipods
Molecular taxonomy often uncovers cryptic species, reminding us that taxonomic
incompleteness is even more severe than previous thought. The importance of cryptic …

Continental-scale patterns of hyper-cryptic diversity within the freshwater model taxon Gammarus fossarum (Crustacea, Amphipoda)
Traditional morphological diagnoses of taxonomic status remain widely used while an
increasing number of studies show that one morphospecies might hide cryptic diversity, ie …

A review of Gammaridae (Crustacea: Amphipoda): the family extent, its evolutionary history, and taxonomic redefinition of genera
Z Hou, B Sket - Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2016 - academic.oup.com
By molecular analysis of a high number of gammarids, including 29 out-group genera, we
could assure the monophyly of Gammaridae. To avoid the paraphyly of the family, we …

Species richness of jellyfishes (Scyphozoa: Discomedusae) in the Tropical Eastern Pacific: missed taxa, molecules, and morphology match in a biodiversity hotspot
LG Daglio, MN Dawson - Invertebrate Systematics, 2017 - CSIRO Publishing
Species richness in the seas has been underestimated due to the combined challenges
presented by the taxonomic impediment, delimitation of species, preponderance of cryptic …

Neogene paleogeography provides context for understanding the origin and spatial distribution of cryptic diversity in a widespread Balkan freshwater amphipod
Background The Balkans are a major worldwide biodiversity and endemism hotspot. Among
the freshwater biota, amphipods are known for their high cryptic diversity. However, little is …
