Hidden diversity in Antarctica: Molecular and morphological evidence of two different species within one of the most conspicuous ascidian species
Abstract The Southern Ocean is one of the most isolated marine ecosystems, characterized by high levels of endemism, diversity, and biomass. Ascidians are among the dominant groups in Antarctic benthic assemblages; thus, recording the evolutionary patterns of this group is crucial to improve our cur...
