 found in the shallower depths. 



a. A dense concentration of the large white 

 anemone found on boulders in an area on the 

 west wall of Baltimore Canyon (223) . The 

 orientation of the tentacles indicates a 

 strong current in this region.

 Cerianthus borealis and a rosefish at 268 

 meters in Lydonia Canyon. The anemone in 

 the foreground is retracted into its tube.

 442 meters in Oceanographer Canyon. Also seen 

 is a mating pair of Canaer borealis and a 

 galatheid crab.

 and Boloaera tuediae , and numerous quill worms 

 Hyalinoecia artifex at 333 meters in Lydonia 

 Canyon. Note two individuals of the jonah
