i5K Comments for Achelia sp.
readily obtainable from the intertidal zone from May-August, and substantial quantities of RNA-grade specimens are currently stored in a -80° freezer. Pycnogonids, or sea spiders, are enigmatic arthropods in many respects. Their highly unusual morphology makes it difficult to infer their closest phylogenetic relatives, making them important organisms for understanding arthropod relationships. This particular lineage of sea spiders has adapted to the most extreme physiological conditions, and Achelia species can be found living in a wide range of environments, from deep-sea hydrothermal vents to the intertidal zone to frigid Antarctic waters. Other pycnogonids in the same family have very small genome sizes. Susan Masta
