Non-indigenous seaweeds in the Northeast Atlantic Ocean, the Mediterranean Sea ...
van der Loos, Luna M.; Bafort, Quinten; Bosch, Samuel; Ballesteros, Enric; Bárbara, Ignacio; Berecibar, Estibaliz; Blanfuné, Aurélie; Bogaert, KennyEffective monitoring of non-indigenous seaweeds and combatting their effects relies on a solid confirmation of the non-indigenous status of the respective species. We critically analysed the status of presumed non-indigenous seaweed species reported from the Mediterranean Sea, the Northeast Atlantic Ocean and Macaronesia, resulting in a list of 140 species whose non-indigenous nature is undisputed. For an addit...
Evaluating signatures of glacial refugia for North Atlantic benthic marine taxa
Maggs, Christine A.; Castilho, Rita; Foltz, David; Henzler, Christy; Jolly, Marc Taimour; Kelly, John; Olsen, Jeanine; Perez, Kathryn E.; Stam, WytzeA goal of phylogeography is to relate patterns of genetic differentiation to potential historical geographic isolating events. Quaternary glaciations, particularly the one culminating in the Last Glacial Maximum similar to 21 ka (thousands of years ago), greatly affected the distributions and population sizes of temperate marine species as their ranges retreated southward to escape ice sheets. Traditional genet...
