Further investigations of the diversity of the Glyceriformia (Polychaeta: Goniadidae and Glyceridae) from West African shelf areas For the past three weeks, Lloyd, who is a Senior Environmental Scientist at Envaserv Research Consult in Ghana, has been visiting us to continue work on the project we have running on the Glyceriformia in the MIWA-material. This […]
For the past two weeks we have had two old friends visiting to work on the material collected through the MIWA-project: Lloyd from Ghana, who has previously been here to participate in the first of our workshops in the Espegrend field station, and Williams from Nigeria, who has been both on the Espegrend workshops and […]

Below is a list of scientists visiting between 2013 and 2017. These researchers were invited to come to Bergen in order to work with the biological samples collected in West African Waters through the Guinea Current (GCLME) and Canary Current (CCLME) Large Marine Ecosystem projects. This activity has been made possible through funding from the JRS Biodiversity Foundation and facilitated by the University […]
Integrating morphological studies with DNA barcoding is indicating significantly higher species diversity than previously known in the polychaete families Goniadidae and Glyceridae (Glyceriformia) from the Western coast of Africa. Our multi-toothed acquaintance from a previous blog post makes an appearance here, together with a multitude of other species. The animals were initially identified to species […]
