Diversity of the parB and repA genes of the Burkholderia cepacia complex and their utility for rapid identification of Burkholderia cenocepacia [PDF]
Background: Burkholderia cenocepacia is the most prominent species of the B. cepacia complex (Bcc), a group of nine closely related and difficult to identify bacteria that cause serious infections in patients with cystic fibrosis.

A New Argyreia Lour. (Convolvulaceae) from Northern Thailand
Argyreia elegans Traiperm, Tetsana & Chitchak, sp. nov., from northern Thailand is described and illustrated. The new species resembles A. kerrii Craib but differs in terms of having lanceolate to oblong leaves, up to two inflorescences (each bearing 1–3

A species delimitation approach in the Trochulus sericeus/hispidus complex reveals two cryptic species with a sharp contact zone [PDF]
Background: Mitochondrial DNA sequencing increasingly results in the recognition of genetically divergent, but morphologically cryptic lineages. Species delimitation approaches that rely on multiple lines of evidence in areas of co-occurrence are ...

Statistical scaling laws for competing biological species
Universality classes are defined for an idealized nonlinear system that governs the competition between biological species. The decay to asymptotic steady state is examined for supercritical Hopf bifurcation by considering a phenomenological approach ...

Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius): From Complex Species to a Species-Complex
The whitefly, Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius), a cryptic species-complex, encompasses a number of morphologically indistinguishable species which differ genetically from each other. It probably represents the highest number of biotypes or genetic groups than any other species in the order Hemiptera.

Water diviners described: six new species of the Niphargus aquilex (Crustacea, Amphipoda) complex
With the onset of molecular taxonomy, it has been recognized that groundwater crustaceans in the family Niphargidae Bousfield, 1977 (Crustacea, Amphipoda) can demonstrate either highly variable or static phenotypes.
