| Abstract |
The isolation of Antarctica makes this continent a perfect evolutionary laboratory for studies of marine biodiversity and biogeography. Attempts to describe and explain patterns of species diversity have become a major goal in biological research since the pioneering deep-sea investigations in the early 60s of the last century. |
