Many different species of invertebrates live together on the steep canyon walls of the Mid-Atlantic continental slope

Many different species of invertebrates live together on the steep canyon walls of the Mid-Atlantic continental slope. Here an octopus, sea star, bivalves, and dozens of cup corals all share the same overhang. The cup corals are Desmophyllum, one of the species targeted by geneticists for taxonomic study.
