PLATE 16 



Figs. A-F. — Station 30, near canyon axis, on slope, 598-610 fms. 



A-C, Mud, largely clay bottom, as shown by clouds, some of which are caused by 



flat fish (arrow 1 in B and C). These fish probably also produce paired curved 



tracks (arrow 2 in A, B, and C). Burrows are also common. Granules visible in 



B may represent faecal pellets. 

 D, Bottom, similar to above; obscured by suspended sediment. Note four eels. 

 E&F, Bottom similar to above; close-up view reveals granular texture (faecal 



pellets?), depressions (fish?), paired tracks (arrow in F), and abundant burrows.
