DNA metabarcoding is routinely used for biodiversity assessment, in particular targeting
highly diverse groups for which limited taxonomic expertise is available. Various protocols …

Bioluminescence has been hypothesized as aposematic signalling, intersexual
communication and a predatory strategy, but origins and relationships among …

Maturation of omics and DNA barcode programs along with advances in sequence analysis
tools and phyloinformatics protocols are enabling the realization of comprehensive and …

We synthesize the evidence from molecular phylogenetics, extant distribution, and plate
tectonics to present an insight in ancestral areas, dispersal routes and the effectiveness of …

Implementing cost‐effective monitoring programs for wild bees remains challenging due to
the high costs of sampling and specimen identification. To reduce costs, next‐generation …
