Article Synopsis
- - DNA barcoding is crucial for identifying new species and understanding biodiversity; it's especially useful for classifying species using single-locus DNA sequences.
- - Various tools have been created for species delimitation, but many were not initially user-friendly, despite their common goal of identifying distinct species.
- - Recently, a standardized format called SPART has been introduced for sharing species partition data, and this chapter outlines protocols for using two specific bioinformatics tools, ASAP and LIMES, for species analysis.

Article Synopsis
- * Traditional species differentiation relies on morphological traits, but molecular methods are becoming essential for cryptic species.
- * The chapter presents protocols for the bioinformatics tool MolD, which helps identify diagnostic nucleotide combinations to improve DNA-based taxa differentiation.
