在深海的许多地区，陆地、浅水或上层海洋的植物遗迹（木材、树叶、水果、海草和马尾藻）非常丰富。对加勒比地区（bbb1200m）收集的植物材料进行了检查。在波多黎各和开曼海沟中，海草（Thalassia testudinum）的木材碎片、叶片和根茎尤其丰富，它们被浑浊流输送到那里。这项研究揭示了丰富的动物群，这些动物群与之前关于深海动物和植物之间联系的零散记录一起被列出。大约有50种生物，主要是无根的，利用海草和木材作为基质。最常见的是产足丝的足脂双壳类。在树皮下和树洞中寻找栖身之处的多毛纲占主导地位（超过25种），在空心根茎中发现的等足类有10种（一种约50种）。一些动物群体利用植物残骸作为食物。机会性的无聊双壳类(X…
Abstract Plant remains of terrestrial, shallow-water, or epipelagic origin (wood, leaves, fruits, seagrass, and Sargassum) are abundant in many areas of the deep sea. Collections of plant material from the Caribbean area (> 1200 m) have been examined. Fragments of wood and blades and rhizomes of seagrass (Thalassia testudinum) are particularly abundant in the Puerto Rico and Cayman Trenches into which they are transported by turbidity flows. The study has revealed a rich fauna which is listed together with previous, scattered records of association between deep-sea animals and plant remains. About 50, mainly sessile, organisms utilize seagrass and wood as a substrate. Most common are byssus-producing mytilid bivalves. Polychaeta is the dominating group seeking shelter under bark and in cavities in wood (more than 25 species), and 10 species of isopods were found in hollow rhizomes (about 50 specimens of one species). Several animal groups utilize plant remains as food. The opportunistic boring bivalves (X...
