Primarily mud on a moderate to steep slope with sparse epifauna, including the sea pen Distichoptilum gracile and the echinoid Phormosoma placenta. Possible sub-fossil serpulidae sp. and sub-fossil scleractinians on vertical to sloping carbonate. Mud/pebble and cobble fields with the stalked crinoid Anachalypsicrinus nefertiti and the soft coral Chrysogorgiidae sp. on boulders transitions to steep mud slope and carbonate/sloping wall with sparse epifauna including Leiopathes sp. and cf Halcampoididae sp. Continuing upslope sea pens, echinoids, the corals Stauropathes arctica and Telopathes sp., and the sponge Asconema sp. are common. Sponges and stalked crinoids co-dominate on bedrock towards the end.

START VIDEO [00:00:00]/05:33. Mud moderate/steep slope with sparse epifauna, including Distichoptilum gracile OTU1108 and Phormosoma placenta OTU555. [00:11:00] occasional cobble/boulder/carbonate boulders on muddy upslope. [00:12:00] sloping carbonate. [00:13:00] Peculiar encounter of possible sub-fossil serpulidae sp and sub-fossil scleractinians on vertical/sloping carbonate. [00:17:00] Here mud/pebble and cobble fields. Anachalypsicrinus nefertiti OTU1031 and Chrysogorgiidae sp. OTU1008 on boulder. [00:24:00] Steep mud slope. [00:27:00] carbonate/sloping wall. [00:28:00] close-up images of Telopathes sp.2 OTU1181. [00:33:00] ROV moves slowly to capture images of Colossendeis sp.2 OTU1201. [00:38:00] ROV stops for imagery and sampling of cf. Halcampoididae sp. OTU984 (sampling failed). [00:42:00] Mud cloud/vision obscured. [00:46:00] Mud sediment with occasional boulders. Sparse epifauna including Leiopathes sp. OTU305. cf Halcampoididae sp OTU984 dominates on mud. [00:49:00] Mud cloud/vision obscured. [00:50:00] Second attempt to sample cf. Halcampoididae sp. OTU984 (sampling failed). [00:56:00] ROV stops for imagery and sampling of cf. Halcampoididae sp. OTU984. [01:07:00] steep muddy slope with sea pens OTU1008 and sea urchins OTU555. [01:14:00] boulders on slope. [01:20:00] ROV stops foe imagery of A. nefertiti, Stauropathes arctica OTU547 and Asconema OTU650. [01:22:00] ROV samples Stauropathes arctica OTU547 and Telopathes sp.2 OTU1181. [01:45:00] Muddy slope. [01:51:00] ROV moves upwards along a very steep slope. Here bedrock begins where many epifauna species co-dominate, including sponges and stalked crinoids. END VIDEO 08:57.
