Abstract

The phylogeny, taxonomy and identification of insects were originally based upon shared or derived morphological and anatomy criteria. However, these processes are confronted with the barrier of the existence of sympatric or cryptic species.

Thus, genetic analyses have more recently played an increasingly important role in confirming existing or establishing often radically different insects
