Abstract The eurybathic isopod species Chelator insignis shows a wide distribution south of Iceland. We analysed 51 specimens from shelf (213–305 m depth), slope (885–891 m and 1380–1390 m depth) and deep-sea habitats (2750 m) south of Iceland with different DNA markers. A fragment of the mitochondr...
