Multiple Doris “kerguelenensis” (Nudibranchia) species span the Antarctic Polar Front
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 12, Issue 9, September 2022., 2022 Here, we provide evidence to show genetic connectivity occurs across the Antarctic Polar Front (APF) within multiple species from the Doris “kerguelenensis” sea slug species complex. This appears to be the first example of a benthic direct‐developing species that spans the APF from the southern South America continental shelf to the Antarctic ...
