Taxonomic identification and molecular barcoding of sea cucumbers collected from Rothera Research Station, Antarctic Peninsula, Antarctica, in 2012 and 2021
This dataset describes the taxonomic identification and molecular barcoding of the five species of sea cucumber (three common and two very rare species) identified from diver-collected samples in Ryder Bay near Rothera Research Station, Antarctic Peninsula, Antarctica, in 2012 and 2021. Specimens of each species were registered and taxonomic identification performed at the Museums Victoria, Melbourne, Australia with additional molecular barcoding performed using the cytochrome c oxidase sub unit 1 (CO1) gene at the British Antarctic Survey.
This study was funded by core funding to UKRI NERC-BAS.
