Systematics of the Arboreal Neotropical ‘<i>thorellii</i>’ Clade of <i>Centruroides</i> Bark Scorpions (Buthidae) and the Efficacy of Mini-Barcodes for Museum Specimens
Fragmented and degraded DNA is pervasive among museum specimens, hindering molecular phylogenetics and species identification. Mini-barcodes, 200–300-base-pair (bp) fragments of barcoding genes, have proven effective for species-level identification of specimens from which complete barcodes cannot b...
