Abstract:
The broad perspective regarding marine-organisms biodiversity indicates a latitudinal gradient. Understanding gradients in diversity at large scales has important applications for understanding future impacts on local and regional communities. We use and propose the edible mollusk Chiton articulatus as the basibiont proxy to analyze the spatio-temporal changes in biodiversity patterns of the epibiotic community occupying its scleritome surface.
