Species Identification

Species Identification is the academic practice of determining the taxonomic identity of an organism through diagnostic biological, genetic, morphological, or chemical characteristics, distinguishing it from other classification processes by its focus on accurate species-level attribution within fields such as Food Authentication, Invasive Species Management, and Zooarchaeology.
