Species From Feces: Order-Wide Identification of Chiroptera From Guano and Other Non-Invasive Genetic Samples
Fig 3
Taxonomic resolution provided by the Species from Feces DNA mini-barcode for bats in each geographic region.
Of the species for which COI barcodes are available, 92% can be identified to species, and the remaining share a barcode with other congeners (5%) or across genera (3%). Pie sizes correspond to number of bat species in each geographic region. The dark grey slice includes species not yet barcoded and species for which barcodes are not publically available.
