Dear Annelid scientists!
My name is Jan Strugnell and I am currently working on a Census of
Marine Life initiative investigating species that have been suggested
to be present at both polar regions (and possibly cosmopolitan) in
their distribution. I include a list of polychaetes below which have
been suggested to be present in the Arctic and Antarctic.
I am trying to track down tissue samples of these polychaetes from
both poles (and also places in between where they exist) that have
been fixed in ethanol or frozen and could be used for DNA barcoding
(through the Guelph barcoding facility).
I was wondering if any of you had any of these samples, (stored in
ethanol or frozen) that could be barcoded for this project? Only a
tiny piece of tissue would be required.
Yours sincerely,
Jan
