Brief description
Benthic fauna from the deep eastern Australian margin was sampled systematically for the first time during 2017 RV Investigator voyage Sampling the Abyss. Box core, Brenke sledge, and beam trawl samples were collected at one-degree intervals from Tasmania, 42S, to southern Queensland, 24S, from 900 to 4800 m depth. Annelids collected were identified by taxonomic experts on individual families around the world.Data and further details are in Gunton LM et al.(2021) Annelids of the eastern Australian abyss collected by the 2017 RV Investigator voyage.
