In situ observations of a possible skate nursery off the western Antarctic Peninsula

During a photographic survey of the seafloor along the western Antarctic Peninsula in November 2013 a dense aggregation of skate egg cases was imaged in one of nine transects. Cases were noted in a narrow band between 394–443 m. Although some skate species in other oceans are known to deposit eggs i...
