DISCLAIMER: This Field Guide is intended to
facilitate underwater/topside field identification from visual characters.
Organisms were identified from photographs with no specimen
collection. Therefire these identifications are to the taxonomic level
possible from photographs, and there can be some uncertainty in identifications solely from photographs.
The publications cited for each organism do not constitute a literature review and can be dated.
To research a species, you can certainly start with these Field Guide citations, but
search for more citations in the NSF-supported Antarctic Bibliography at www.coldregions.org/antinfo.htm. You should also search for
more citations in these commercially available site-licensed indexing databases:
Zoological Record, BIOSIS Previews, and Arctic & Antarctic
Regions.
