Preliminary results<br />

Biodiversity survey<br />

Trap operations (Tab. C13-1) allowed collecting scavenger crustaceans from<br />

Hausgarten area (7 amphipod species, 1 isopod species) and, during <strong>the</strong> previous leg<br />

<strong>ARK</strong>/<strong>XIX</strong>3b, from HMMV (6 amphipod species) (Tab. C13-2). In addition, preliminary<br />

sorting of several GKG samples (from stations 409, 417, 465, 468, taken from depths of<br />

1549 to 5219 m) provided some species of Eusiridae, Lysianassidae and<br />

Phoxocephalidae as well as some Tanaidacea. One Eusirid species was not identifiable<br />

from current keys and may be new to science.<br />
