Figure 4 Variation in the family-level taxonomic composition of marine bivalves across a latitudinal gradient along the eastern coastline of Australia. Data shown are based on field surveys of 16 sites. Proportions are of individuals at each site. Only the most common 10 families are shown for clarity.
