Storage of Karyotyped Voucher Specimens and their Molecular Identification

Fish are currently the only vertebrate group where several hundred new species are still
described each year (Fig. 1). One third of the currently recognized species have been
described in the last 12 years (Fishbase 2002; 2014). The reassesment using modern
approaches of species that were thought to be well known resulted in the discovery of many
new species (Thomas et al. 2014; Zemlak et al. 2009). In a particularly stunning example,
