“…DNA barcoding is not only for species identification, but also for evolutionary, ecological, and conservation research ( Hebert et al., 2003 ; Valentini et al., 2009 ; Li et al., 2011a ; Liu et al., 2018 ; Leese et al., 2018 ). In addition, the use of DNA barcodes has also led to the discovery of many new and/or cryptic species (e. g., Hebert et al., 2004 ; Bączkiewicz et al., 2017 ; Tyagi et al., 2019 ). Accordingly, DNA barcoding has become an effective tool for uncovering hidden diversity and has enhanced our understanding of biodiversity ( Gregory, 2005 ; Kress et al., 2005 ; Li et al., 2011b ).…”
