Phylogenetic species identification in Rattus highlights rapid radiation and morphological similarity of New Guinean species.
The genus Rattus is highly speciose, the taxonomy is complex, and individuals are often difficult to identify to the species level. Previous studies have demonstrated the usefulness of phylogenetic approaches to identification in Rattus but some species, especially among the endemics of the New Guin...
