Morphological Features
This is a large complex of almost 80 morphologically similar species that occur across the Asia-Pacific region. It represents an excellent example of a species complex in which difficulties occur for workers charged with the responsibility of identifying specimens, particularly those resulting from biosecurity surveys. At the forefront, also, is the necessity for researchers to identify and describe these sibling species, using morphology as a key procedure. The degree of divergence in genes that influence external morphological characters is not necessarily representative of the total of all genetic changes that occur during the process of speciation. In fact, the mere existence of sibling species with varying degrees of genetic similarity indicates that there is no consistent relationship between morphological and genetic change at speciation.
