Description
English: Photographs of the East Scotia Ridge vent fauna.

(A)Actinostolid sea anemones surrounded by cf. Vulcanolepas on a chimney with diffuse hydrothermal venting at E9 (Dive 138, 2,396 m depth).
(B) Dense field of actinostolid sea anemones along with peltospiroid gastropods (Dive 140, 2,394 m depth).
(C) Anemone field at E9 with juvenile Kiwa n. sp. interspersed (Dive 139, 2,398 m depth).
(D) Gigantopelta chessoia (mentioned as Undescribed peltospiroid gastropod) at E2 surrounding single Kiwa n. sp. and partially covered by Lepetodrilus n. sp. The pycnogonid cf. Sericosura is at the bottom right of the image (Dive 132, 2,608 m depth).
