The Use of Methyl Green as an Aid in Species Discrimination in Onuphidae (Annelida, Polychaeta)
Samples of Onuphidae from the coast of Norway and the waters around Iceland and the Faeroes were treated with dark alcoholic solutions of Methyl Green, a nonpermanent stain, and then destained in 80% alcohol. The resultant staining patterns were used to subdivide the samples. Sarsonuphis quadricuspi...
