§Pseudocalanus moultoni and P. newmani are morphologically cryptic but genetically distinct,
differing by 18% in mtCOI sequence.
§Multiplexed, species-specific PCR (SS-PCR) was used to
identify individual copepods. Reactions were
done in 96-well plates, with controls.
§For the U.S. GLOBEC samples, only adult females were
identified.
