2. Evolution, Systematics and Integrative Taxonomy

Example of topics:

• species concepts and species delimitation
• integrative taxonomy (morphology + molecules)
• phylogeny and evolutionary history
• population genetics and genomics
• hybridization and introgression
• genome size and karyotype evolution
• cryptic diversity and sibling species
• barcoding and metabarcoding
• revision of taxa and type material
• nomenclature and taxonomic stability
• host–parasite coevolution
• comparative morphology and imaging (SEM, micro‑CT)
