“…DNA barcoding provides additional information to discriminate among closely related species that are morphologically similar (Hebert et al, 2003a(Hebert et al, , 2003bHebert & Gregory, 2005;Ward et al, 2005). Indeed, this method has frequently provided decisive evidence to discriminate problematic taxonomic groups of species (Taylor & Watson, 2004;Watson et al, 2015). DNA barcoding has been widely used in taxonomic, ecological and biogeographic studies to identify fish eggs (Harada et al, 2015;Lewis et al, 2016;Ahern et al, 2018) and larvae (Pegg et al, 2006;Hubert et al, 2012;Hui-Ling et al, 2013;I-Shiung et al, 2013;Thirumaraiselvi et al, 2015;Camacho-Gastélum et al, 2017).…”
