Global terrapin character-based DNA barcodes: assessment of the mitochondrial COI gene and conservation status revealed a putative cryptic species

Technological and analytical advances to study evolutionary biology, ecology, and conservation of the Southern River Terrapin (Batagur affinis ssp.) are realised through molecular approaches, including DNA barcoding. We evaluated the use of COI DNA barcodes in Malaysia’s Southern River Terrapin popu...
