First report of Laternula elliptica in the Antarctic intertidal zone (2016)
Journal Article
Waller, C. L., Overall, A., Fitzcharles, E. M., & Griffiths, H. (2017). First report of Laternula elliptica in the Antarctic intertidal zone. Polar Biology, 40(1), 227-230. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00300-016-1941-y

Many Antarctic marine invertebrates are considered to be highly stenothermal, subjected to loss of functionality at increased temperatures and so at high risk of mortality in a rapidly warming environment. The bivalve Laternula elliptica is often use... Read More about First report of Laternula elliptica in the Antarctic intertidal zone.
