Necrophagous invertebrates of the Admiralty Bay of King George Island (South Shetland Islands, Antarctica)
Paper received 15 June 1985. In 1977 and 1980 rich materials of necrophagous invertebrates were collected in the Admiralty Bay of King George Island. The collecting was carried out in 9 stations differing with respect to their habitat conditions. The stations were established at depths ranging from...
