Growth and age across range extension region of Centrostephanus rodgersii in eastern Tasmania and morphometric comparison of urchins inhabiting kelp versus barrens habitats, Australia (2004-2005)

OBIS Australia MeasurementOrFact Open in mapper Explore occurrences

The barrens-forming sea urchin Centrostephanus rodgersii has undergone poleward range extension to eastern Tasmania. This data compares growth, morphology, reproductive investment and gonad indices between individuals inhabiting barrens ('barrens-maintaining' urchins') with those found on kelp beds ('barrens-forming' urchins) in north eastern Tasmania.
