Shallow benthic invertebrate communities in relation to substrate types in coastal environments of the sub-Antarctic Crozet archipelago Open
Coastal ecosystems of sub-Antarctic islands are threatened by increasing climate-driven changes and direct anthropogenic pressures. Significant effects on marine communities are expected, but benthic ecosystems of these isolated islands re…

A first glimpse into the biogeographic affinities of the shallow benthic communities from the sub-Antarctic Crozet archipelago Open
Sub-Antarctic islands are expected to show a high degree of endemicity due to their remoteness. However, biogeographic affinities in the sub-Antarctic remain poorly understood, especially in the marine realm. Sub-Antarctic islands being at…

Antarctica is less isolated with increasing depth - evidence from pycnogonids Open
No other group of animals typifies the uniqueness of Antarctic life more than Pycnogonida (sea spiders), with 20% of all known species found in the Southern Ocean, and 64% of these endemic to the Antarctic. Despite nearly 200 years of rese…

An iridovirus from the Antarctic seaspider <i>Pentanymphon antarcticum</i> (Pycnogonida) Open
The Antarctic seaspider Pentanymphon antarcticum is a benthic species in the Southern Ocean, but little is known about its pathogen profile. In this study, we provide a draft genome for a new iridovirus species that has been identified usi…

Sea spiders (Arthropoda, Pycnogonida) from ten recent research expeditions to the Antarctic Peninsula, Scotia Arc and Weddell Sea - data Open
This dataset contains information on specimens of Southern Ocean Pycnogonida (Arthropoda), that were collected from ten different research cruises, spanning 13 years. The individual aims and objectives of each cruise can be found in their …

Gorgoniapolynoe caeciliae revisited: The discovery of new species and molecular connectivity in deep-sea commensal polynoids from the Central Atlantic Open
Gorgoniapolynoe caeciliae (Fauvel, 1913) is a deep-sea commensal polynoid that lives in association with several genera of octocorals from the order Alcyonacea. The species has been recorded in the Caribbean and in both Atlantic and Indian…

Breaking All the Rules: The First Recorded Hard Substrate Sessile Benthic Community Far Beneath an Antarctic Ice Shelf Open
The seafloor beneath floating ice shelves accounts roughly a third of the Antarctic’s 5 million km 2 of continental shelf. Prior to this study, our knowledge of these habitats and the life they support was restricted to what has been obser…
