Abstract We tested the performance of DNA barcoding in Acridoidea and attempted to solve species boundary delimitation problems in selected groups using COI barcodes. Three analysis methods were applied to reconstruct the phylogeny. K2P distances were used to assess the overlap range between intraspecific variation and interspecific divergence. ‘‘Best match (BM)’’, ‘‘best close match (BCM)’’, ‘‘all species barcodes (ASB)’’ and ‘‘back-propagation neural networks (BP-based method)’’ were utilized to test the success rate of species identification. Phylogenetic species concept and network analysis were employed to delimitate the species boundary in eight selected species groups. The results demonstrated that the COI barcode region performed better in phylogenetic reconstruction at genus and species levels than at higher-levels, but showed a little improvement in resolving the higher-level relationships when the third base data or both first and third base data were excluded. Most overlaps and incorrect identifications may be due to imperfect , indicating the critical role of taxonomic revision in DNA barcoding study. Species boundary delimitation confirmed the presence of oversplitting in six species groups and suggested that each group should be treated as a single species.

Because 1000 species known from China to date. However, imperfect of the difference in taxon sampling, selection of genetic markers taxonomy may exist in many species groups, especially in those and analytical strategy, the results were frequently inconsistent to with reduced tegmina. Many brachypterous and apterous new some extent among different case studies and the phylogenies species have been described from China during the last thirty years remain unresolved in many taxa. based on minor differences which might in fact be normal DNA barcoding is a diagnostic technique in which short DNA intraspecific variations, and some of them are extremely close sequence(s) can be used for species identification [43]. It has geographically to their nearest relatives, resulting in a possible attracted extensive attention from taxonomists all over the world. oversplitting, i.e. morphotypes are inappropriately recognized as Using the standard 658-base fragment of the 59 end of the species [1]. Some efforts have been made to resolve these issues mitochondrial gene cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI, cox1) as based on morphological study [2–4].

However, a lot of factors can affect the success been defined from those subfamilies. Molecular evidence has long rate of DNA barcoding, for example, the selection of gene been used to resolve the phylogeny, evolutionary history and fragment(s) [51], control of numts [52–53], monophyly of the taxonomy of Acridoidea at different hierarchical levels.

The as Acridoidea [9–21], there were also many investigations effectiveness of barcoding is critically dependent upon species exploring the phylogenies and origins of their subordinate delineation [1].

Therefore, it is clear that C. italicus and C. abbreviatus are two each group except that the body size of Sinopodisma houshana is separate species. However, the tegmina length should not be slightly larger than those of S. lushiensis and S. qinlingensis. All regarded as distinguishing character between these two species materials were collected from the type locality of each species since wing-length polymorphism is quite common in Acrididae except for those of S. houshana, which has a much more widespread [94–95].
