A response to recent proposals for integrative taxonomy (2010, background): “In a series of recent articles, several taxonomists have discussed the ways in which we should construct a new and more integrative taxonomy (Dayrat, 2005; Will, Mishler & Wheeler, 2005; Meier, 2008; Valdecasas, Williams & Wheeler, 2008; Wheeler, 2008).”
How many species in the Southern Ocean? Towards a dynamic inventory of the Antarctic marine species (2011, methodology): “…faunistic and floristic inventories, taxonomic systems of reference (classification, nomenclature, synonymy, bibliography), and appropriate identification tools such as monographs, guides, keys, photographic atlases, image recognition software (MacLeod, 2007), or DNA barcoding (Meier, 2008).”
From ‘cryptic species’ to integrative taxonomy: an iterative process involving DNA sequences, morphology, and behaviour leads to the resurrection of Sepsis pyrrhosoma (Sepsidae: Diptera) (2010, background): “Similarly, allopatric populations within old species may have distinctly different sequences and DNA evidence may erroneously suggest that they should be split into multiple species (Meier 2008; Meier et al. 2008).”
The integrative future of taxonomy (2010, background): “Nonetheless, a general view has emerged that now is the time to construct a more "integrative taxonomy" that would accommodate new concepts and methods [36,37,39-41], and a considerable number of studies have already echoed the new term "integrative taxonomy" [28,31,4245].”
Cryptic genetic diversity in "widespread" Southeast Asian bird species suggests that Philippine avian endemism is gravely underestimated. (2010, background): “biodiversity research (Balke et al., 2009; Bickford et al., 2007; Meier, 2008).”
Current progress in DNA barcoding and future implications for entomology (2011, background): “There is considerable controversy regarding the taxonomic perspective of molecular data, including DNA barcoding (Meier 2008).”
