                                            waters shallower than 400m

                                               Most of the Southern Ocean is

Identifying gaps

                                     2,8 isopod species are
                                   descibed every year
De Broyer C & Danis B, submitted
                                     600+ were discovered
                                   during ANDEEP
                                     We will need 214 years to
                                   describe them!
