ln situ observations on the genus Bathyplotes (Holothuroidea, Echinodermata) in Antarctica and its relevance to taxonomy
Nineteen holothurian specimens were photographed or videotaped in situ on the deeper shelf of the Weddell Sea (Antarctica). These specimens show a different gradient and combinations of characteristics which are found in Bathyplotes rubipunctatus Gutt, 1990. A close relationship to this species is t...
