Dear fellow polychaete lovers,
I am a zoology honours student with The University of Tasmania, Australia.
I am studying the population genetics of Sabella spallanzanii and hope to
determine the origin of the invasion in Australian waters and the type of
invasion; single vs multiple sources. I also plan to investigate the revised
taxonomy of Sabella using genetic techniques.
I am currently collecting samples of Sabella spallanzanii and other
members of this genus (Sabella pavonina, Sabella discifera) along with
Stylomma palmatum, and representatives of the genus Bispira (Phyllis
Knight-Jones, 1998).
In particular I would like to get my hands on Sabella spallanzanii from
Brazil, Rio de Janeiro, from the Mediterranean and from the East Atlantic
populations.
Any suggestions or potential contacts would be greatly appreciated !
Thank you for your time,
