A comment to Dr Yan Liu’s presentation. I disagree with your statement that with undertaking eDNA monitoring you avoid the need for taxonomists. All the opposite! now with the need to increment the information in databases to help identify eDNA sampling, taxonomists studies are more more needed than ever to help in this effort. Investment in taxonomy and biodiversity research is very urgently needed to help clarify and delimit the species to enable eDNA studies.
