The emergence of the marine species Halocladius variabilis (Staeger) in the surroundings of theTvärminne Biological Station (about 6‰S) in the northernBaltic Sea in 1952–1953 is outlined. Most individuals emerged in the submerged funnel traps used in the study from the last half of May to the end of June. The population density in the sites studied varied between 0 and 328 indiv./m2; wide areas had a population density of nearly 10 indiv./m2. No emergence was found in the traps nearest to the buildings of the station, but the highest numbers of the emergence occurred in the most distant sites studied.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
