Evaluando el riesgo de intoxicación por una especie invasora: la babosa de mar moteada (Pleurobranchaea maculata)

open access: yes, 2016
La babosa de mar moteada (Pleurobranchaea maculata) es una especie invasora en Argentina. Recientemente, se ha descubierto que puede almacenar una potente neurotoxina en su cuerpo, lo que supone un peligro para animales y personas. En este trabajo, se discute acerca del riesgo potencial que plantea la introducción de esta especie en la región, con base
