Journal ArticleDOI
How to describe a cryptic species? Practical challenges of molecular taxonomy
TL;DR: Three previously valid Pontohedyle species are characterized based on four genetic markers and nine cryptic new species are formally described applying molecular taxonomy, based on diagnostic nucleotides in DNA sequences of the four markers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Global coordination and standardisation in marine biodiversity through the World Register of Marine Species (WoRMS) and related databases.
Mark J. Costello,Philippe Bouchet,Geoff A. Boxshall,Kristian Fauchald,Dennis P. Gordon,Bert W. Hoeksema,Gary C. B. Poore,Rob W. M. Van Soest,Sabine Stöhr,T. Chad Walter,Bart Vanhoorne,Wim Decock,Ward Appeltans +12 more
TL;DR: The scale of the problems with species names, synonyms, and their classification is illustrated, and how WoRMS publishes online quality assured information on marine species is described to show increased taxonomic efficiency and quality control in marine biodiversity research and management.
Journal ArticleDOI
Integrative taxonomy on the fast track - towards more sustainability in biodiversity research.
TL;DR: It is suggested that phylogenetics and phenetics had a subtle and so far unnoticed effect on taxonomy leading to inflated species descriptions, and fast track taxonomy will not only increase speed, but also sustainability of global species inventories.

Micro-computed tomography: Introducing new dimensions to taxonomy
Sarah Faulwetter,Aikaterini Vasileiadou,Michail Kouratoras,Thanos Dailianis,Christos Arvanitidis +4 more
TL;DR: The potential of micro-computed tomography (X-ray micro-tomography), a non-destructive three-dimensional imaging technique based on mapping X-ray attenuation in the scanned object, for supporting research in systematics and taxonomy is explored.
Journal ArticleDOI
A phylogenetic classification of jumping spiders (Araneae: Salticidae)
TL;DR: The proposed relationships indicate that a strongly ant- like body has evolved at least 12 times in salticids, and a strongly beetle-like body at least 8 times, according to both molecular and morphological information.
