Similar soft-bottom polychaete diversity in Arctic and Antarctic marine inlets. Marine Biology, 151, 607–616. APPENDIX 1. Polychaete taxa collected from the East Greenland Shelf (NEW) and the Barents Sea (BASICC), recorded without reference to Linnean ran
Abstract The diversity of soft-bottom polychaete assemblages in one Antarctic (Admiralty Bay) and two Arctic (Kongsfjord and van Mijenfjord) localities was compared. The data sets included 79 (Admiralty Bay), 80 (Kongsfjord) and 44 (van Mijenfjord) samples col lected with use of 0.1 m2 van Veen grab...

Summary: | Abstract The diversity of soft-bottom polychaete assemblages in one Antarctic (Admiralty Bay) and two Arctic (Kongsfjord and van Mijenfjord) localities was compared. The data sets included 79 (Admiralty Bay), 80 (Kongsfjord) and 44 (van Mijenfjord) samples col lected with use of 0.1 m2 van Veen grab. The number of species per sample in Kongsfjord (mean 19.9 ± 8.0 SD) was higher than that in Van Mijenfjord (13.7 ± 8.3) or Admiralty Bay (15.7 ± 9.4). The differ ences in species numbers reflected differences in num bers of individuals in samples: 310.4 ind/0.1 m2 ± 178.0 in Kongsfjord, 132.7 ind/0.1 m2 ± 88.7 in Van Mijenfj ord and 138.9 ind/0.1 m2 ± 91.5 in Admiralty Bay. The Hurlbert diversity for 50 individuals (CSpo]) was simi lar at all sites: 10.7 ± 3.4 in Kongsfjord, 9.7 ± 4.2 in van |
