Maintenance and Update Frequency: notPlanned Statement: Data source: original field data. Identification updates received from expert taxonomists are integrated into the catch data. The data including all upgrades entered until Dec 2016 have been transferred to the CSIRO Information and Data Centre, and loaded into the CSIRO Data Trawler.

This cruise took place in southern Tasmanian Continental Slope waters during 20 January - 1 February 1997, under the leadership of Tony Koslow. Biological data collected on this cruise include photographic surveys of four seamounts, dredge samples, faunal samples (including corals and many other benthic invertebrates) and fish samples. Samples of several species of corals, including Solenosmilia variabilis, were also taken for genetic analysis, and rock samples taken for age determination of the seamounts.
