Crustaceans Associated with Cold Water Corals: A Comparison of the North Atlantic and North Pacific Octocoral Assemblages
Crustaceans live on large colonial invertebrates for a variety of reasons, but in all cases must overcome the defenses of the host animal. We surveyed the crustaceans living on deep-sea octocorals collected during expeditions to the New England and Corner Rise seamounts (2003–2005) in the Northwest...
