Bathymetric distribution and diversity variation of macrobenthic invertebrates on the continental shelf and upper slope of southern Brazil

This study analyzed the bathymetric distribution and diversity variation of macrobenthic invertebrates on the continental shelf and upper slope of southern Brazil (32º 10’S o 33º 45’S) as well as their relationship with environmental conditions. three hundred twenty species were collected with a 1m...
