Over a century ago, the first substantial benthic samples taken in Antarctic waters by the staff of the Challenger primarily served the purpose of completing the inventory of the world’s ocean fauna. This first discovery phase, with a strong emphasis on taxonomy, continued during the first half of the twentieth century, before Antarctic stations were established ashore. The focus of research then shifted to studies of life history, behaviour, and physiology of the benthic fauna in shallow waters. Occasionally, as for example in McMurdo Sound, a further step was taken towards the study of ecological interactions in situ.
