![]() This zone is known as the Patagonian fishing area, owing to the fishing activities undertaken here by many countries, among them Spain (del Rio et al. It extends over 200 miles from the exclusive economic zone of Argentinian waters and reaches a depth of 2062 m. The study area is located in the Southwest Atlantic. In the case of echinoderms, the most recent studies have been carried out by Martin-Ledo and Lopez Gonzalez ( 2014), Danis et al. 2017 Weir and Stanworth 2019, among others). Regarding the south, some authors have tried to explain how species distribution areas can help to analyze the existence of biogeographical entities (regions or provinces) in the Southern Ocean, mainly based on their occurrence (Hedgpeth 1969 Rodriguez et al. Regarding the north, a good study of these connections can be found in Alvarado and Solís-Marín ( 2013) and, within this field, the study undertaken by Brogger et al. ![]() The distribution of Argentinian marine fauna and their connection with adjacent areas has become a topic of interest in the last few years. Most of these 64 species (89.06%) are present in Antarctic-adjacent waters, and after the study of their occurrences at traditional biogeographic entities, our results support the hypothesis that Argentinian waters (in the case of the class Asteroidea) should be considered part of the sub-Antarctic entity. After refining the database built from literature and open-access databases such as OBIS and AntBIF, the new Argentinian asteroids deep-water checklist contains 2198 records from 64 asteroids species including the 7 new records proposed. Seven of those species are proposed as new records: ( Diplasterias octoradiata (Studer 1885), Plutonaster bifrons (Wyville Thomson, 1873), Radiaster elegans Perrier, 1881, Anseropoda antarctica Fisher, 1940, Pillsburiaster calvus Mah, 2011, Paralophaster lorioli (Koehler, 1907), Pteraster flabellifer Mortensen 1933). These are profusely impacted by frequent fishing activities, being one of the most important and international fishing grounds, where 887 records (1878 specimens) of 41 species of asteroids were collected in 217 stations ranging from 219 to 2062 m in depth. This work is based on Atlantic Projects’ surveys carried out on an atypical and especially vulnerable marine ecosystems (canyons created from craters collapse by gas leaks). In addition, these results offer us the opportunity to analyze the possible connections between Argentinian marine fauna and adjacent Antarctic areas that have become a topic of interest in the past few years. ![]() Press Release: Dometic acquires SeaStar Solutions (Nov.The main target of this paper is to improve the knowledge of the species composition of sea stars in Patagonian Argentine deep sea reaching depths of 2062 m. ![]() With the new name, Dometic Marine, we will continue this journey and intend to expand our business even further.” Note to Editors Together, as Dometic Marine, we continue to serve our customers with the best solutions in the industry.”Įric Fetchko, President of Dometic Marine Americas says, “With 76 years of history and dedication to command and control for boaters, SeaStar Solutions has accumulated industry leading technologies and knowledge in the market. ![]() Peter Kjellberg, Chief Marketing Officer, Dometic Group says, “Since the acquisition of SeaStar Solutions in November 2017, SeaStar Solutions has shown steady growth and its innovative products have been supporting our business in the leisure marine segment.
