Molecular identification of wolf spiders (Araneae: Lycosidae) by multiplex polymerase chain reaction

2007-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Ecological field studies are often hindered by the difficulty of identifying certain taxonomic groups. For example, no identification keys exist for immature Australian wolf spiders, which are important predators of insect pests. This makes it difficult to identify the majority of specimens collected in the field. We used multiplex polymerase chain reaction for the molecular identification of seven species of wolf...
