Cryptic biodiversity of freshwater fish species in Bangladesh.
PLoS ONEUnrecognized cryptic species impede conservation planning and biodiversity assessments. DNA barcoding has tremendously expanded the number of novel and cryptic species in biological science.

Cryptic species conservation: a review. [PDF]
Biol Rev Camb Philos SocABSTRACTCryptic species are groups of two or more taxa that were previously classified as single nominal species. Being almost morphologically indistinguishable, cryptic species have historically been hard to detect. Only through modern morphometric, genetic, and molecular analyses has the hidden biodiversity of cryptic species complexes been revealed.

Cryptic Species in Ecotoxicology
Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, 2023 Abstract The advent of genetic methods has led to the discovery of an increasing number of species that previously could not be distinguished from each other on the basis of morphological characteristics. Even though there has been an exponential growth of publications on cryptic species, such species are rarely considered in ...

Neural basis of acoustic species recognition in a cryptic species complex [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Biology, 2021 ABSTRACT Sexual traits that promote species recognition are important drivers of reproductive isolation, especially among closely related species. Identifying neural processes that shape species differences in recognition is crucial for understanding the causal mechanisms of reproductive isolation.

Climatic niche comparison across a cryptic species complex [PDF]
PeerJ, 2019 According to current molecular evidence, the Chionaspis pinifoliae heterophyllae species complex has been recognized as 10 cryptic species. In this study, we construct potential distribution maps for seven cryptic species based on climatic variables ...

Assessing cryptic marine fauna diversity as underwater macrophotography (UMP) objects in Sempu Strait, Indonesia [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2020 Cryptic marine fauna refers to organisms that live inside habitats that hidden from direct exposure to their outer environment. Its cryptic nature made these animals rarely observed, and hence understudied.

Genomic resolution of cryptic species diversity in chipmunks [PDF]
Evolution, 2022 ABSTRACT Discovery of cryptic species is essential to understanding the process of speciation and assessing the impacts of anthropogenic stressors. Here, we used genomic data to test for cryptic species diversity within an ecologically well-known radiation of North American rodents, western chipmunks (

Cryptic species as a window into the paradigm shift of the species concept [PDF]
Molecular Ecology, 2018 AbstractThe species concept is the cornerstone of biodiversity science, and any paradigm shift in the delimitation of species affects many research fields. Many biologists now are embracing a new “species” paradigm as separately evolving populations using different delimitation criteria.

Evidence supporting cryptic species within two sessile microinvertebrates, Limnias melicerta and L. ceratophylli (Rotifera, Gnesiotrocha). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Microorganisms, including rotifers, are thought to be capable of long distance dispersal. Therefore, they should show little population genetic structure due to high gene flow.

Cryptic diversity in a fig wasp community—morphologically differentiated species are sympatric but cryptic species are parapatric [PDF]
Molecular Ecology, 2017 AbstractA key debate in ecology centres on the relative importance of niche and neutral processes in determining patterns of community assembly with particular focus on whether ecologically similar species with similar functional traits are able to coexist.
