Geitodoris planata research
March 4, 2004
From: Thierry Backeljau
Dear All,
Request for specimens:
In the context of a licence degree work, a student of mine is screening DNA variation in Geitodoris planata in the Eastern Scheldt Estuary (The Netherlands), where this species has been introduced since 1999. For comparative purposes we need conspecific material for from other regions, as well as of related species (Geitodoris spp. and even other Discodoridae). Therefore my request for help. I would indeed be very grateful for any material of this sort that can be provided. Specimens do not need special conservation, they only have to be fixed in ethanol of 70% to 96%. Specimens will be returned afterwards (we only need a small piece of tissue to extract DNA). If possible several specimens (5-20) per population would be most convenient in case of G. planata, while for other species 1-5 specimens would suffice. If you would be able and willing to help us with such material, please contact me in advance.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH IN ADVANCE!!
Very best wishes,
