Within the Pycnogonida, genetic studies have … revealed that Colossendeis megalonyx Hoek (Challenger … Report, Zoology, 3(X), 1–167, 1881), consists of a complex of … several cryptic or overlooked species.
The pycnogonids of the Southern Ocean have been studied for almost two centuries and have played a key role in shaping previous biogeographic regions for the Antarctic benthos.
We present the almost complete (16,007 bp) mitochondrial genome of a Colossendeis megalonyx specimen from the Southern Ocean and discuss gene order and tRNA structure in a comparative phylogenetic context.
Callipallenid sea spiders are commonly found in southern Australian waters. The genera Pseudopallene and Stylopallene are frequent epibionts of arborescent bryozoan colonies of Orthoscuticella spp. and Amathia spp. Based on external morphology, colouration patterns…
Sea spiders are conspicuous, and often abundant, members of the Antarctic benthic community. Nymphonidae (Pycnogonida) in Southern Ocean waters … comprise over 240 species which are often diYcult to … assign due to their intraspeciWc ‘highly variable’ morphology. In particular, Nymphon australe…
Compared to temperate and tropical relatives, some high-latitude marine species are large-bodied, a phenomenon known as polar gigantism. A leading hypothesis on the physiological basis of gigantism … posits that, in polar water…
