Low coverage of species constrains the use of DNA barcoding to assess mosquito biodiversity
Abstract Mosquitoes (Culicidae) represent the main vector insects globally, and they also inhabit many of the terrestrial and aquatic habitats of the world. DNA barcoding and metabarcoding are now widely used in both research and routine practices involving mosquitoes. However, these methodologies r...
