DNA barcoding uncovers cryptic diversity in 50% of deep-sea Antarctic polychaetes [PDF]
The Antarctic marine environment is a diverse ecosystem currently experiencing some of the fastest rates of climatic change. The documentation and management of these changes requires accurate estimates of species diversity.

Cryptic species within cryptic moths: new species of Dunama Schaus (Notodontidae, Nystaleinae) in Costa Rica [PDF]
Based on almost 1,700 recently reared and wild-collected specimens, the genus Dunama Schaus (Notodontidae, Nystaelinae) in Costa Rica is reviewed. Eight species are recorded of which seven are newly described: Dunama jessiehillae Chacón, Dunama jessiebarronae Chacón, Dunama janewaldronae Chacón, Dunama jessiebancroftae Chacón, Dunama janecoxae Chacón ...

Cryptic species diversity in polypores: the Skeletocutis nivea species complex [PDF]
We propose a taxonomic revision of the two closely related white-rot polypore species,Skeletocutisnivea(Jungh.) Jean Keller andS.ochroalbaNiemelä (Incrustoporiaceae, Basidiomycota), based on phylogenetic analyses of nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) and translation elongation factor EF-1α sequences.

Empirical evidence supporting frequent cryptic speciation in epiphyllous liverworts: a case study of the Cololejeunea lanciloba complex. [PDF]
Cryptic species are frequently recovered in plant lineages, and considered an important cause for divergent of morphological disparity and species diversity.

Based on the principle of competitive exclusion, species occupying the same ecological niche cannot stably coexist due to strong interspecific competition for resources.

A large number of insect-specific viruses (ISVs) have recently been discovered, mostly from hematophagous insect vectors because of their medical importance, but little attention has been paid to important plant virus vectors such as the whitefly Bemisia

Cryptic animal species are homogeneously distributed among taxa and biogeographical regions
Background Cryptic species are two or more distinct but morphologically similar species that were classified as a single species. During the past two decades we observed an exponential growth of publications on cryptic species. Recently published reviews

Cryptic or underworked? Taxonomic revision of the Antistrophus rufus species complex (Cynipoidea, Aulacideini) [PDF]
Cryptic species present challenges across many subdisciplines of biology. Not all “cryptic” species, however, are truly cryptic; many are simply underexplored morphologically.

Sampling in multiple localities, coupled with molecular barcoding, has shown that nominal species with wide geographical distribution often harbour local cryptic species in allopatry. Cryptic species in sympatry, however, can be easily missed if they have different seasonality, because they can be identified only through long-term frequent sampling (i ...
