Mono-specific facies of Parazoanthus axinellae in Luiz Saldanha Marine Park
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 26 June 2015
Abstract
We report the first mono-specific facies of Parazoanthus axinellae from the western Portuguese coast. The habitat was recorded using a MiniRov Observer on a large outcrop at ca. 55–60 m in the Luiz Saldanha Marine Park. A method to estimate the maximum uncertainty of the ROV position is illustrated and the occurrence of the facies is discussed.
