The diet of itinerant male Hooker's sea lions, Phocarctos hookeri , at sub-Antarctic Macquarie Island. Wildlife Research, 1999 (Ref: 8773)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Abstract … Scats were collected from itinerant male Hooker's sea lions, Phocarctos hookeri, at Macquarie Island and the un-eroded faunal remains used to assess the diet. Un-eroded sagittal otoliths were used to identify teleost fish and to calculate fish size.

Colwellia demingiae sp. nov., Colwellia hornerae sp. nov., Colwellia rossensis sp. nov. and Colwellia psychrotropica sp. nov.: psychrophilic Antarctic species with the ability to synthesize docosahexaenoic acid (22:6w3) International Journal of Systematic Bacteriology, 1998 (Ref: 8532)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

As part of a general survey of the biodiversity and inherent ecophysiology of bacteria associated with coastal Antarctic sea-ice diatom assemblages, eight strains were identified by 16S rRNA sequence analysis as belonging to the genus Colwellia. The isolates were non-pigmented…

Pseudoalteromonas prydzensis sp. nov., a psychrotrophic, halotolerant bacterium from Antarctic sea ice International Journal of Systematic Bacteriology, 1998 (Ref: 8529)
Authors:
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Species of the genus Pseudoalteromonas are frequently isolated from marine ecosystems and appear to be particularly abundant in Antarctic coastal waters.

Glaciecola punicea gen. nov., sp. nov. and Glaciecola pallidula gen. nov., sp. nov.: psychrophilic bacteria from Antarctic sea-ice habitats. International Journal of Systematic Bacteriology, 1998 (Ref: 8531)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

A group of pigmented, psychrophilic, strictly aerobic chemoheterotrophs isolated from sea-ice cores collected from coastal areas of eastern Antarctica was found to represent a novel 16S rRNA lineage within the gamma subclass of the Proteobacteria, adjacent to the genus Alteromonas.

Psychroflexus torquis gen. nov., sp. nov., a psychrophilic species from Antarctic sea ice, and reclassification of Flavobacterium gondwanense (Dobson et al. 1993) as Psychroflexus gondwanense gen. nov., comb. nov. Microbiology, 1998 (Ref: 8530)
Category 3: Article

A group of sea-ice-derived psychrophilic bacterial strains possessing the unusual ability to synthesize the polyunsaturated fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid (20:5w3) and arachidonic acid (20:4w6) belong to the Family Flavobacteriaceae (Flexibacter–Bacteroides–Flavobacterium phylum)…
