  • Struck, Torsten H; Cerca De Oliveira, Josè (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / SubmittedVersion, 2019)
    Cryptic species are detected at an ever‐increasing rate, mainly due to the application of molecular data. While the impact of this hidden diversity on macro‐ecology and conversation biology is widely recognized, its ...
  • Cerca, Jose; Meyer, Christian; Stateczny, Dave; Siemon, Dominik; Wegbrod, Jana; Purschke, Günter; Dimitrov, Dimitar; Struck, Torsten H (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2020)
    Morphological stasis or the absence of morphological change is a well-known phenomenon in the paleontological record, yet it is poorly integrated with neontological evidence. Recent evidence suggests that cryptic species ...
  • Cerca De Oliveira, Josè; Meyer, Christian; Purschke, Günter; Struck, Torsten H (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2020)
    The recognition of cryptic species concealed in traditionally established species may reveal new biogeographical patterns and alter the understanding of how biodiversity is geographically distributed. This is particularly ...

    The annelid family Eunicidae comprises ten genera including the genusMarphysa Quatrefages, 1866. This genus is characterized by a global distribution and hasconsiderable value in the bait industry worldwide. ...
  • Struck, Torsten H; Feder, Jeffrey L.; Bendiksby, Mika; Birkeland, Siri; Cerca, Jose; Gusarov, Vladimir; Kistenich, Sonja; Larsson, Karl-Henrik; Liow, Lee Hsiang; Nowak, Michael; Stedje, Brita; Bachmann, Lutz; Dimitrov, Dimitar (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / SubmittedVersion, 2018)
    Cryptic species could represent a substantial fraction of biodiversity. However, inconsistent definitions and taxonomic treatment of cryptic species prevent informed estimates of their contribution to biodiversity and ...
  • Fleming, James Frederick; Valero Gracia, Alberto; Struck, Torsten H (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2023)
    Abstract The availability of phylogenetic data has greatly expanded in recent years. As a result, a new era in phylogenetic analysis is dawning—one in which the methods we use to analyse and assess our data are the bottleneck ...
  • Cerca, José; Colon, Angel G. Rivera; Ferreira, Mafalda S.; Ravinet, Mark; Nowak, Michael; Catchen, Julian M.; Struck, Torsten H (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2021)
    Morphologically similar species, that is cryptic species, may be similar or quasi-similar owing to the deceleration of morphological evolution and stasis. While the factors underlying the deceleration of morphological ...
  • Cerca De Oliveira, Josè; Purschke, Günter; Struck, Torsten H (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / SubmittedVersion, 2018)
    Many interstitial species were first described as widely distributed, often cosmopolitan or amphi-oceanic, contrasting with descriptions of a sedentary life style and the general absence of pelagic dispersal stages. These ...
  • Struck, Torsten H; Golombek, Anja; Hoesel, Christoph; Dimitrov, Dimitar; Elgetany, Asmaa H. (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2023)
    Abstract The mitochondrial genomes of Bilateria are relatively conserved in their protein-coding, rRNA, and tRNA gene complement, but the order of these genes can range from very conserved to very variable depending ...
  • Magnussen, Trude; Johnsen, Arild; Kjærandsen, Jostein; Struck, Torsten H; Søli, Geir Einar Ellefsen (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2021)
    In this study, we use low-coverage shotgun sequencing of genomic DNA, commonly referred to as genome skimming, to investigate the phylogenetic relationships of the fungus gnat genus Allodia Winnertz (Mycetophilidae, ...
  • Ramey-Balci, Patricia; Fiege, Dieter; Struck, Torsten H (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / SubmittedVersion, 2018)
    Low morphological diversity among interstitial taxa makes it difficult to delimit species and their geographic boundaries based solely on morphology and molecular data often reveal cryptic species. Polygordius (Annelida, ...
  • Cerca, José; Cotoras, Darko; Santander, Cindy G.; Bieker, Vanessa Carina; Hutchins, Leke; Morin-Lagos, Jaime; Prada, Carlos; Kennedy, Susan M.; Krehenwinkel, Henrik; Rominger, Andrew J.; Meier, Joana Isabel; Dimitrov, Dimitar; Struck, Torsten H; Gillespie, Rosemary G (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2023)
    Abstract The repeated evolution of phenotypes provides clear evidence for the role of natural selection in driving evolutionary change. However, the evolutionary origin of repeated phenotypes can be difficult to disentangle ...
