Complementarity of morphology and metabarcoding in annelid communities from Western Mediterranean insular environments

2026-05-15

Abstract excerpt

Accurate biodiversity assessment of marine benthic communities depends strongly on species identification methodologies, yet both traditional morphology-based taxonomy and molecular approaches present inherent limitations. In this study, we investigate the complementarity of morphological identification, DNA barcoding, and metabarcoding to evaluate annelid diversity across western Mediterranean environments with c...
