A new range-extending record of the invasive sea squirt S. clava in the north of Scotland (2020)
Journal Article
Want, A., & Kakkonen, {. E. (2021). A new range-extending record of the invasive sea squirt S. clava in the north of Scotland. Marine Biodiversity Records, 14, Article 15. https://doi.org/10.1186/s41200-021-00211-x

A new record of an individual of the invasive sea squirt, Styela clava, is reported from Scapa Flow in Orkney, Scotland. This represents a 1.54° latitudinal extension (168 km) from the previous northern-most record in UK waters. Diver surveys of hard...

In the North-east (NE) Atlantic, most intertidal fucoids and warm-temperate kelps show unique low-latitude gene pools matching long-term climatic refugia. For cold-temperate kelps data are scarcer despite their unique cultural, ecological and economi...
