[Annelida] anybody able to help

[Pat Hutchings]

Hi folks

a colleague of mine has asked me if I know any such stains


"My colleague has asked me the following question, as I am having very poor luck in a literature search for mark-recapture methods for marine worms. There is an emerging field of work on chemical tracers and stains for the mark-recapture technique, particularly for calcifiers like crabs and molluscs (e.g. using Calcein). Do you know of any people/papers that had success staining worms for recapture and/or successful alternative methods?"


I had to confess that I had no knowledge of such a stain


anyhow if anybody knows - of such stains please can they let me know thanks Pat
