Scavenger guilds are composed of a variety species, co-existing in the same habitat and sharing niche food web. Niche partitioning among them can manifest different feeding strategies, e.g. during carcass feeding. In bentho-pelagic realm Southern Ocean, scavenging amphipods (Lysianassoidea) ubiquitous occupy central role decomposition processes. Here we address question whether lysianassoid employ strategies feeding, synergistic activities may influence decomposition. To this end, compared...
Colossendeis robusta Hoek, 1881, originally described from the Kerguelen shelf, is considered as one of most widespread Antarctic pycnogonids. However, taxonomic status this and similar species has long been unclear, synonymy C. glacialis Hodgson, 1907 several other with proposed. Here we test two independent molecular markers well comprehensive morphometric measurements SEM data ovigeral spine configuration. We show that are clearly distinct species, our results also indicate existence...
