Identification and Distribution of a Bone-eating Marine Worm (Annelida, Osedax)
Ephemeral reducing environments such as hydrothermal vents and whale falls create oases of chemosynthetic primary production in the nutrient poor deep sea. The polychaete family Siboglinidae has adapted to occupy these niches of chemical nutrition. This likely requires high levels of dispersal, eith...
