To tackle the challenge, one must become an expert on a specific group in order to notice those rarities among the masses. This is without counting the added challenges of cryptic groups where the external morphology is of limited help as individuals often appear to belong to the same species despite being genetically distinct. In many cases, the taxonomist has to dissect hundreds of specimens to detect slight differences in their genitalia which are usually unique for each species. DNA barcoding can greatly assist any taxonomist by speeding up this laborious identification process, particularly with small flies like <em>Paramyia<\/em> Williston (Diptera: Milichiidae).<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/ibol.org\/barcodebulletin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Figure0.jpg&#8221; show_in_lightbox=&#8221;on&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.3.2&#8243; custom_margin=&#8221;37px|||||&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.3.2&#8243; text_font=&#8221;||||||||&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#646564&#8243; text_font_size=&#8221;16px&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||3px|||&#8221;]<p><span style=\"font-size: 90%;\">Flowering plant visited by <em>Paramyia<\/em> sp.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 90%;\">PHOTO CREDIT: <span>Steve A.

In the Nearctic, it was only represented by one species, <em>P. nitens<\/em> Loew. With that knowledge in mind, no particular attention was given to specimens collected in that geographic range. That is until multiple Barcode Index Numbers (BIN) were found on the Barcode of Life Data System (BOLD) under the same species name. This strongly indicated that multiple undescribed species may have been placed under one species &#8211; <em>P. nitens<\/em>. A closer look at their genitalia revealed this to be true, and so a revision of the genus was then needed.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/ibol.org\/barcodebulletin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Figure2.jpg&#8221; show_in_lightbox=&#8221;on&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.3.4&#8243;][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.3.2&#8243; text_font=&#8221;||||||||&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#646564&#8243; text_font_size=&#8221;16px&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||3px|||&#8221;]<p><span style=\"font-size: 90%;\"><em>Paramyia<\/em> sp. displaying kleptoparasitism, that is, feeding on the captured prey (stink bug) of another predator (spider)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 90%;\">PHOTO CREDIT: <span>Steve A.

Then, I studied the morphology of these specimens in-depth to detect variation between those grouped together based on their similarities (i.e, morphs) and dissected the genitalia to confirm if they were indeed new species. With a genus like <em>Paramyia<\/em>, most helpful characters to differentiate between the species are genitalic, which means that good dissection skills are essential. The skill needed to dissect the genitalia of such small flies is comparable to performing surgery on a baby\u2019s tooth. Important to note, there are no morphology characters to split the females of most species apart.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.3.2&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;||2px|||&#8221;]<p>This is where DNA barcoding comes in handy. I sequenced specimens from my different morphs, and then dissect males grouped in the same BIN to verify the correspondence between the BIN and the species concept. When the molecular and the morphological analysis align perfectly, females can get correctly associates with their male counterpart, which would have otherwise been impossible. Hence, the species description can be more complete and the sequences are available to be used by other researchers to correctly identified that group, e.g. in monitoring programs. I applied this process in the Nearctic revision of <em>Paramyia<\/em> and described 10 new species! Future revisions tackling the remaining geographic regions can build from this work.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/ibol.org\/barcodebulletin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Figure3.jpg&#8221; show_in_lightbox=&#8221;on&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.3.2&#8243;][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.3.2&#8243; text_font=&#8221;||||||||&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#646564&#8243; text_font_size=&#8221;16px&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||3px|||&#8221;]<p><span style=\"font-size: 90%;\">Comparative morphology between the new species <em>P. pseudonitens<\/em> and <em>P. brevikeraia<\/em> with a body profile, frontal head and genitalia photos (top to bottom)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 90%;\">PHOTO CREDIT: <span>Valerie Levesque-Beaudin<\/span><\/span><\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.3.2&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;||2px|||&#8221;]<p>The taxonomic impediment coupled with the current rate of species extinction is making the job of the taxonomist increasingly more difficult and yet, there\u2019s an urgent need to record species before they disappear.
