A new study has found that what were thought to be two different species of native Australian bee are in fact one.
A new study by Curtin and Flinders Universities has found that what were thought to be two different species of native Australian bee are in fact one.
"For many native bee species in Australia, their descriptions were based on only one sex. Identifying males and females as belonging to the same species solely through observation can be challenging, as both sexes of the same species often display noticeable differences. Dr Prendergast said the findings showed the value of DNA barcoding in accurately identifying males and females that belong to the same species. This is particularly crucial because males and females of the same species may have distinct appearances, while different species of the same sex can appear quite similar.
