Single mitochondrial gene barcodes reliably identify sister-species in diverse clades of birds

BACKGROUND: DNA barcoding of life using a standardized COI sequence was proposed as a species identification system, and as a method for detecting putative new species. Previous tests in birds showed that individuals can be correctly assigned to species in ~94% of the cases and suggested a threshold...
