DNA metabarcoding unravels unknown diversity and distribution patterns of tropical freshwater invertebrates

Freshwater Biology, Volume 67, Issue 8, Page 1411-1427, August 2022., 2022
Abstract Tropical freshwater invertebrate species are becoming extinct without being described, and effective conservation is hampered by a lack of taxonomic and distribution data. DNA metabarcoding is a promising tool for rapid biodiversity assessments that has never been applied to tropical freshwater invertebrates across large spatial and taxonomic ...
