| Summary: | represent 29 podocopid species, belonging to 19 genera, one cladocopid and six myodocopid species. They were recovered from Recent marine and/or glacio−marine sediment samples from water depths of up to 520 m. These ostracods constitute a variable assemblage, which is overall typical for the Antarctic environment. Shallow−water assemblages tend to be more variable in terms of frequencies and species richness than deep−water assemblages. The later are low in numbers and remain relatively high diversities. Overall, no linear relation between ostracod assemblage−composition and environmental features analyzed was recognized. |
