Thechallenge of small and rare species in marine biodiversity surveys: microgastropod diversity in a complex tropical coastal environment

2011-12-01

Abstract excerpt

Although molluscs feature prominently in the semi-popular and academic literature on marine biodiversity, field surveys largely ignore the small and rare species that form the majority of marine molluscan diversity. As a result of a massive effort to sample the benthic molluscs of a complex tropical coastal environment, 23,238 gastropod specimens representing 259 species of Triphoridaeâa family with most adult s...
