Recently, my frogs and toads reported for the first time have been rejected by certain journals because the paper lacked genetic data. Now, the question is "Do we need to really get genetic codes for all species?" How can genetic data which comes as the outcome of laboratory works help us identify species in the field? Or we just keep the species name as just certain frog or toad (just example) and keep waiting until a genetic work is done? Don't species evolve and change their genetic content based on their evolutionary traits over time? Do we really trust the genetic codes for species identifications?
