The importance of molecular characters when morphological variability hinders diagnosability: systematics of the moon jellyfish genus Aurelia (Cnidaria: Scyphozoa)
Cryptic species have been detected across Metazoa, and while no apparent morphological
features distinguish them, it should not impede taxonomists from formal descriptions. We …
