Diagnostic laboratories very often receive mauled or decomposing animal carcasses, particularly of bats, rendering morphometric identification unviable. The existence of different regional names for the same animal, morphological variability and the lack of staff trained in zoological identification constitute a serious problem for epidemiological surveillance. Molecular techniques are used routinely and effectively in systematics, evolution and ecology to identify species and can even be used to identify hybrids that originated from genetically close animals, in... |
