TL;DR: It is shown that non-bee insect pollinators play a significant role in global crop production and respond differently than bees to landscape structure, probably making their crop pollination services more robust to changes in land use.
Journal ArticleDOI
DNA barcoding and the mediocrity of morphology
TL;DR: A comparison of DNA barcoding and morphological taxonomy in terms of their accuracy and diversity of characters employed concludes that morphology often does not work and is often nowhere near as ‘rich’ as has been argued.
Journal ArticleDOI
Wolbachia and DNA Barcoding Insects: Patterns, Potential, and Problems

TL;DR: It is concluded that regular assays for Wolbachia presence and type can, and should, be adopted by large scale insect barcoding initiatives and the ability to query this DNA library for endosymbionts is one of the ancillary benefits of such a large scale endeavor.
Journal ArticleDOI
Unveiling cryptic species of the bumblebee subgenus Bombus s. str. worldwide with COI barcodes (Hymenoptera: Apidae)
Paul H. Williams,Mark J. F. Brown,James C. Carolan,Jiandong An,Dave Goulson,A. Murat Aytekin,Lincoln R Best,Alexander M. Byvaltsev,Björn Cederberg,Robert Dawson,Jiaxing Huang,Masao Ito,Alireza Monfared,Rifat Raina,Paul Schmid-Hempel,Cory S. Sheffield,Peter Šima,Zenghua Xie +17 more
TL;DR: This is the first review of the entire subgenus Bombus to avoid fixed a priori assumptions concerning the limits of the problematic species and to diagnose all of the putative species throughout their global ranges and to map the extent of these geographic ranges.
Journal ArticleDOI
DNA barcoding a regional bee (Hymenoptera: Apoidea) fauna and its potential for ecological studies.
TL;DR: Most members of this well‐known fauna of Nova Scotia, Canada were resolved with particular clarity; the average intraspecific divergence was less than 0.5%, and COI sequences from over 75% of the province's species are now in the Barcodes of Life Data System.
