Correct identification of specimens is based on taxonomic research, scattered in the scientific literature and accessible only for a restricted group of specialists or research institutions with extensive library facilities (Zuquim <em>et al.</em> 2017). Therefore, identification keys that summarize the knowledge of a group of biota are very important; they provide the link between producers and users of taxonomy. Recently, printed identification keys are increasingly being replaced or supplemented by computer-aided keys.</p><p> </p>}, number={3}, journal={Zootaxa}, author={Hackenberger, Davorka K. and Hackenberger, Domagoj K. and Đerđ, Tamara and Hackenberger, Branimir K.}, year={2019}, month={Jun.}, pages={594–595} }
