Quality The animals counts were done according to convention: sorting
under a stereo microscope after sieving and preservations. A 250
micrometer mesh was used for sieving. Accuracy is unknown. Box
cores likely lose some light epifauna during coring process, but
this is the most common deep-sea infauna collection tool used.

Access Constraints None

Use Constraints Do not redistribute to third parties. When not provided by taxonomist,
