Rapid, large-scale species discovery in hyperdiverse taxa using 1D MinION sequencing

Abstract Background More than 80% of all animal species remain unknown to science. Most of these species live in the tropics and belong to animal taxa that combine small body size with high specimen abundance and large species richness. For such clades, using morphology for species discovery is slow...
