A toolbox for integrative species delimitation in Machilis jumping bristletails (Microcoryphia: Machilidae)

摘要: Abstract Accurate species delimitation is fundamental for many fields of biology. Although a wide range evolutionary-biological patterns are known to promote failure in when any single information source considered, the majority characterisations still based on disciplines. Using Alpine jumping bristletails we here showcase establishment morphological and molecular tools multi-source taxonomically problematic arthropod group stress its advantages over single-discipline approaches. Once sound delimitations have been achieved, will be available as prime model system addressing questions related emergence endemism parthenogenesis.
