Underwater Field Guide to Ross Island & McMurdo Sound, Antarctica

This Field Guide is intended to facilitate underwater or topside field identification from visual characters. Organisms were identified only from photographs (no specimen collection). Field Guide identifications are taken to the taxonomic level that is possible solely from photograph examination, with uncertainty indicated. The publications cited for each organism do not constitute a review on each species. To find out more about a species, start with the Field Guide citations and then search for additional citations through the NSF-supported Cold Regions Bibliography at http://lcweb.loc.gov/rr/scitech/coldregions/welcome.html. Additional citations can usually be found in these commercially available indexing databases: Zoological Record, BIOSIS Previews, and Arctic & Antarctic Regions.
