Fouling bryozoans in Argentine harbours (Southwest Atlantic): new records and the description of a new species
Non-indigenous bryozoans are frequent components of biofouling assemblages in harbour environments worldwide. We performed a survey of artificial hard substrates in six harbours spanning 16 degrees of latitude along the coast of Argentina, from Ingeniero White (38º47′ S) to Ushuaia (54º48′ S). Micro...
