Systematics and Species Delimitation in New Guinea Skink Species Complexes (Squamata: Scincidae)
… and examining objective methods for species delimitation until recently. Further, New Guinea and the surrounding regions are among the most diverse and geologically complex regions globally, yet the region remains poorly explored biologically, and little work has examined the evolutionary …

A contribution to species delimitation and taxonomy of North American Entomobrya (Collembola: Entomobryidae)
… Following an integrative framework for species delimitation based on explicit species criteria developed for this study, 3 morphologically cryptic lineages, each diagnosable by color pattern, are identified and supported by evidence obtained from phylogeny, genetic distances, geographic …

The relevance of delimitation debate in context of space tourism and space traffic management
This study argues the relevance of the delimitation debate which has existed for over half a century. The study will show that a legally accepted boundary between air space and outer space would effectively close the existing gap within air and space law which has led to uncertain legal application …

How reliable is morphological species delimitation in kelp? : a study of two closely related South African Ecklonia species
Ecklonia maxima and Ecklonia radiata are both kelp bed forming macroalgae along the South African coast, and the latter is also found in considerable abundance in Australia and New Zealand. Genetically they exist as two distinct species and can usually be differentiated morphologically, especially …
