TL;DR: The structural attributes and biotic effects of the habitats that corals, sea pens, sponges and xenophyophores offer other organisms and the biotic structures they create to habitat heterogeneity and diversity on the deep continental margins are highlighted.

TL;DR: It is proposed that Sharks are excluded from the abyss by high-energy demand, including an oil-rich liver for buoyancy, which cannot be sustained in extreme oligotrophic conditions.

TL;DR: This review describes the evolution of baited camera techniques in deep-sea research from the early deployments, through recent programs to investigate trends in animal distribution with depth, latitude, and ocean basin.

TL;DR: The size, abundance and depth distribution of C. armatus was consistent with the hypothesis that these fish are part of a population mixing freely across the deep North Atlantic Basin, and temperature and latitude influenced distribution.

TL;DR: This study aimed at determining whether the resultant pattern of species richness with depth is a consequence of local factors in a given region or whether it simply reflects the global pattern of fish species distribution in the oceans.
