Amphipods in estuaries: the sibling species low salinity switch hypothesis [PDF]
Zoosystematics and Evolution, 2020 A novel low salinity switch hypothesis is proposed to account for the speciation of an obligate estuarine (oligohaline) amphipod, Orchestia aestuarensis, from a closely-related one, Orchestia mediterranea, found in both estuarine and marine conditions ...
