DNA barcoding for effective biodiversity assessment of a hyperdiverse arthropod group: the ants of Madagascar

The role of DNA barcoding as a tool to accelerate the inventory and analysis of diversity for hyperdiverse arthropods is tested using ants in Madagascar. We demonstrate how DNA barcoding helps address the failure of current inventory methods to rapidly respond to pressing biodiversity needs, specifi...
