Abstract We analyzed the diversity of bacterial epibionts and trophic ecology of a new species of Kiwa yeti crab discovered at two hydrothermal vent fields (E2 and E9) on the East Scotia Ridge ( ESR ) in the Southern Ocean using a combination of 454 pyrosequencing, Sanger sequencing, and stable isot...
