Large-scale spatial distribution patterns of echinoderms in nearshore rocky habitats.

Large-scale spatial distribution patterns of echinoderms in nearshore rocky habitats.

This study examined echinoderm assemblages from nearshore rocky habitats for large-scale distribution patterns with specific emphasis on identifying latitudinal trends and large regional hotspots. Echinoderms were sampled from 76 globally-distributed sites within 12 ecoregions, following the standar...
