New record of "Bathymodiolus" mauritanicus Cosel 2002 from the Gulf of Cadiz (N...
Genio, Luciana; Johnson, Shannon B.; Vrijenhoek, Robert C.; Cunha, Marina R.; Tyler, Paul A.; Kiel, Steffen; Little, Crispin T. S.The "Bathymodiolus" childressi group is the most geographically diverse assemblage of deep-sea mussel species. In this paper we consider several possible hypotheses to explain the present biogeographic distribution of the "B." childressi species complex. Mussels were collected for the first time from mud volcanoes in the Gulf of Cadiz (NE Atlantic Ocean) during the training through research (TTR) 16 research ex...
A new method to determine the reproductive condition in female tubeworms tested...
Hilario, Ana; Tyler, Paul A.; Pond, David W.Vestimentiferan tubeworms are significant members of deep-sea chemosynthetically-driven communities, including hydrothermal vents and cold seeps. The reproductive condition in this taxon is rarely studied because of sampling constraints inherent to these environments, and the lack of a simple methodology to quantify gonad development in vestimentiferans. We demonstrate that the amount of gonad found in the firs...
