This paper represents a general study of two major phenomena in the taxonomy of the lower taxa of the Salpidae and their bearing on theories about the origin of the recent species. Arguments are presented that point strongly to a specific status for closely related forms previously described as infraspecific by most authors. Latitudinalclinal variation, reported for the first time in salps in a previous paper of the present author, is now demonstrated to be a uniform trend in all species with a wide distribution into temperate waters. Some indications are found that support the assumption that the clinal forms represent separate populations with a small degree of genetic difference. Thalia democratica (Forskål, 1775) is divided into two formae, forma... |
