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.

Cryptic species diversity in polypores: the Skeletocutis nivea species complex [PDF]
MycoKeys, 2018 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.

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.

Finding Evolutionary Processes Hidden in Cryptic Species [PDF]
Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 2018 Cryptic species could represent a substantial fraction of biodiversity. However, inconsistent definitions and taxonomic treatment of cryptic species prevent informed estimates of their contribution to biodiversity and impede our understanding of their evolutionary and ecological significance.

Genomic analysis reveals a cryptic pangolin species
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2023 Eight extant species of pangolins are currently recognized. Recent studies found that two mitochondrial haplotypes identified in confiscations in Hong Kong could not be assigned to any known pangolin species, implying the existence of a species. Here, we report that two additional mitochondrial haplotypes identified in independent confiscations from ...

Empirical evidence supporting frequent cryptic speciation in epiphyllous liverworts: a case study of the Cololejeunea lanciloba complex. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Cryptic species are frequently recovered in plant lineages, and considered an important cause for divergent of morphological disparity and species diversity.

npj Biofilms and Microbiomes, 2021 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

Ciidae of Michigan (Insecta: Coleoptera) [PDF]
, 2020 The family Ciidae Leach, 1819, occurs worldwide with approximately 720 species. In the United States there are 84 species in 13 genera. Given their relatively small size (~0.5 to 6 mm) and cryptic habitats, feeding in decaying fungi, recent regional ...

Cryptic animal species are homogeneously distributed among taxa and biogeographical regions
BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2007 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
