#NewSpecies of ocean predator in the Atacama Trench

A new large predator (#Amphipoda) hidden at hadal depths of the #AtacamaTrench: Johanna Weston et al. https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/14772000.2024.2416430
"Characterized by darkness and intense pressure, the ocean's #HadalZone seems uninhabitable, yet dozens of unique organisms call it home... A new study highlights one of those species... This #crustacean is the first large, active predatory #amphipod from these extreme depths"
