These samples are part of a study that suggests the premise that continents like Europe and the Americas cause barriers to gene flow for the nudibranchs found in the uppermost layer (neuston) of the ocean. The nudibranch Glaucus atlanticus, found in all oceans, was studied to assess the genetic differentiation of mulitiple specimens from a global sampling effort.
These data are published as Table S1 in Churchill (2013).
