Phylogeny and phylogeography of the Lysianassoidea (Crustacea: Amphipoda): connectivity within and between Antarctic, sub-Antarctic and southwest Atlantic regions
By molecular analyses (using COI and 28S rRNA), we investigated for several lysianassoid species: (i) their circumpolarity, (ii) the link between the Magellan region, the Scotia Arc and the Antarctic Peninsula and (iii) the link between the Antarctic regions and the southwest Atlantic abyssal basin....

By molecular analyses (using COI and 28S rRNA), we investigated for several lysianassoid species: (i) their circumpolarity, (ii) the link between the Magellan region, the Scotia Arc and the Antarctic Peninsula and (iii) the link between the Antarctic regions and the southwest Atlantic abyssal basin.
