Abstract Information on genetic divergence and migration patterns of vent‐and seep‐
endemic macrobenthos can help delimit biogeographical provinces and provide scientific …

Hydrothermal vents in the Southern Ocean are the physiologically most isolated
chemosynthetic environments known. Here, we describe Kiwa tyleri sp. nov., the first species …

Faunal assemblages at hydrothermal vents associated with island-arc volcanism are less
well known than those at vents on mid-ocean ridges and back-arc spreading centres. This …

Within the marine environment, per offspring investment (POI) is associated with modes in
larval development; an increase in POI has often been described with a decrease in …

The recent discovery of two new species of kiwaid squat lobsters on hydrothermal vents in
the Pacific Ocean and in the Pacific sector of the Southern Ocean has prompted a re …

Few species of reptant decapod crustaceans thrive in the cold‐stenothermal waters of the
Southern Ocean. However, abundant populations of a new species of anomuran crab, Kiwa …

Alvinocaridid shrimps are endemic species inhabiting hydrothermal vents and/or cold seeps.
Although indirect evidences (genetic and lipid markers) suggest that their larval stages …

The shrimp Rimicaris exoculata is the most conspicuous component of vent communities
developing around hydrothermal fluid emissions below 2000 m on the northern Mid-Atlantic …

We report the first comparative population genetics study for vent fauna in the Southern
Ocean using cytochrome C oxidase I and microsatellite markers. Three species are …

Deep-sea chemosynthesis-based ecosystems support unique biological communities, but
human impacts are an increasing threat. Understanding the life-history traits of species from …
