Description

Code-based abyssal metazoan megafauna (invertebrates > 10 mm) morphotype catalogue developed by morphological and taxonomical alignment of seafloor specimens (e.g. from 13 Phyla) encountered in seabed imagery collected in multiple locations across the Clarion Clipperton Zone, in the NE Pacific basin. The standardised catalogue supported the generation of the study: [doi]
