Biogeographical, biochemical and genetic differentiation among North American saccoglossids (Hemichordata; Enteropneusta; Harrimaniidae)

Populations of two common enteropneusts, Saccoglossus bromophenolosus and S. kowalevskii, were sampled. Though previously considered a single species, the two taxa were clearly distinct biochemically and genetically.
