Highlights: 00:25:00 Soft coral? 01:12:16 Cup coral? 01:17:42 Sea pen 01:27:59 Fish

Of note: A variety of sea pens including Halipteris and Funiculina.

There is a soft sediment slope, steep in parts with multiple small tubes (possibly polychaetes). Occasional areas of numerous small white echinoids. Midway along the transect, large brown echinoids, including Phormosoma are present. Multiple large burrows, some with galatheids. Anemones include cerianthids, with the occasional Phelliactis. Sea pens and cup corals, including Flabellum sp. are also observed. The large holothurian Benthothuria is frequently observed from midway through the dive. A variety of sea pens including Halipteris and Funiculina also noted.

START VIDEO [00:00:00]/19:03. Muddy slope with sparse epifauna, mainly sea urchins and sea cucumbers. Slope inclination fluctuates across the dive, from moderate to steep. [00:01:00] ROV stops for sampling two pushcores. Throughout the entire video, the dive is set on muddy slope with sparse epifauna, mainly sea urchins and sea cucumbers. Slope inclination fluctuates across the dive, from moderate to steep. [00:05:00] Obscured vision. [00:07:00] Scattered animal tracks on muddy slope. [00:15:00] Muddy slope continues on moderate/steep slope which host sparse epifauna, including ophiuroids. [00:21:00] Fluffy organic matter (cf. worm-like tubes) emerging from muddy slope.
