Dear Lawrence and all,
I have collected Sabellidae ( a new species of Fabriciinae) from
seasonally inundated inland salt lakes in south-west Western Australia at
37 to 49 ppt salinity, but these lakes have probably not had connection to
the sea since the mid-Miocene and even then they were part of an
extensive river system rather than coastal lagoons or anything.
Cheers,
Adrian.
