With the help of an underwater drone and the analysis of the hull of ships, a team of researchers seeks to early detect any organism that could disturb the fragile biodiversity of this territory. In 2020, a group of scientists made a complex discovery on the coast of...
An investigation, recently published in the scientific journal Fish & Shellfish Immunology, revealed that the increase in temperatures conditions the response of Harpagifer antarcticus and Harpagifer bispinis to diseases. One of the consequences of climate change...
Despite the fact that the scientific literature indicated that it was a single species, a group of experts found new evidence. After various genetic analyses, the results of the work were published in the prestigious journal Ecology and Evolution. The King Crab is a...
Through various DNA analyses, the presence of a single species of Harpagifer was discovered, contrasting current records. However, there are three highly genetically differentiated groups of the family of these spiny animals present in Patagonia. In the sub Antarctic...
