The paradox of retained genetic diversity of Hippocampus guttulatus in the face of demographic decline.

Scientific reports - 17 May 2021

Abstract excerpt

Genetic diversity is the raw foundation for evolutionary potential. When genetic diversity is significantly reduced, the risk of extinction is heightened considerably. The long-snouted seahorse (Hippocampus guttulatus) is one of two seahorse species occurring in the North-East Atlantic. The population living in the Ria Formosa (South Portugal) declined dramatically between 2001 and 2008, prompting fears of...
