Summary: | These data are gonad index (gonad mass/total animal mass) and egg sizemeasurements for two Antarctic marine invertebrates, the starfishOdontaster validus and the brittle star Ophionotus victoriae. Data arefor samples hand-collected monthly, where weather permits, by scubadivers from sites near the British Antarctic Survey's research stationat Rothera Point, Adelaide Island. Samples were first collected in 1997and have continued for 19 years to 2015. |
