A “complex” problem: delimiting sibling species boundaries in black flies (Diptera: Simuliidae)
2012-03-07
Abstract excerpt
Abstract Rapid and recent lineage radiations pose challenges to systematists. Using members of the highly diverse Simulium arcticum Malloch complex, we tested whether the cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) barcoding gene can differentiate black fly sibling species. Members of the S. arcticum complex were monophyletic in relation to two morphospecies and two cryptic species of the Simulium malyschevi Dorogostaisk...
