With increasing anthropogenic threats to the marine environment, it has become a priority to improve our understanding and conservation of marine fauna. In Antarctic waters, a rich and diverse benthic fauna thrives.

Thorough research on the genetic and ecological structure of Antarctic benthic invertebrate populations is lacking, particularly for some of the most dominant taxa, such as the Amphipoda. This study investigated genetic structure, diversity and population ecology in some common Antarctic benthic amphipod species, to build a more rigorous understanding of the Antarctic benthos that will aid in future management planning.
