Abstract
In the marine gastropod Littorina saxatilis differences in relative shell apertural form between two ecotypes from NW Spain have been associated with an environmental cline related to the degree of wave exposure. Such differences have been claimed to have a strong genetic basis, with little influence of phenotypic plasticity.

clina/ecoclina


Explanation:
Diria assim em PT(pt).

Trata-se da variação direccional das características de uma população ou comunidade ao longo de um gradiente ecológico, ver
http://iate.europa.eu/SearchByQuery.do?method=searchDetail&l...

A distribuição destas comunidades, na zona de transição dulciaquícola-salobra, faz-se progressivamente de acordo com o gradiente salino, comportando-se mais como um padrão de ecoclina do que de écotono.
