      In Australia, the deep-water (bathyal and abyssal) benthic invertebrate fauna is poorly known in comparison with that of shallow (subtidal and shelf) habitats. Benthic fauna from the deep eastern Australian margin was ...
    • A chemosynthetic weed: the tubeworm Sclerolinum contortum is a bipolar, cosmopolitan species 

      Georgieva, Magdalena N.; Wiklund, Helena; Bell, James B; Eilertsen, Mari Heggernes; Mills, Rachel A; Little, Crispin T S; Glover, Adrian G. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-12-14)
      Background Sclerolinum (Annelida: Siboglinidae) is a genus of small, wiry deep-sea tubeworms that depend on an endosymbiosis with chemosynthetic bacteria for their nutrition, notable for their ability to colonise a multitude ...
    • Genetic connectivity from the Arctic to the Antarctic: Sclerolinum contortum and Nicomache lokii (Annelida) are both widespread in reducing environments 

      Eilertsen, Mari Heggernes; Georgieva, Magdalena N.; Kongsrud, Jon Anders; Linse, Katrin; Wiklund, Helena; Glover, Adrian G.; Rapp, Hans Tore (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-03-19)
      The paradigm of large geographic ranges in the deep sea has been challenged by genetic studies, which often reveal putatively widespread species to be several taxa with more restricted ranges. Recently, a phylogeographic ...
    • The lower bathyal and abyssal seafloor fauna of eastern Australia 

      O'Hara, Timothy D.; Williams, Alan; Ahyong, Shane T.; Alderslade, P.; Alvestad, Tom; Bray, D.; Burghardt, Ingo; Budaeva, Nataliya; Criscione, F.; Crowther, A.L.; Ekins, M.; Eléaume, M.; Farrelly, C.A.; Finn, J.K.; Georgieva, Magdalena N.; Graham, A.; Gomon, M.; Gowlett-Holmes, K.; Gunton, L.M.; Hallan, A.; Hosie, A.M.; Hutchings, Pat; Kise, H.; Köhler, F.; Kongsrud, Jon Anders; Kupriyanova, Elena; Lu, C.C.; Mackenzie, M.; Mah, C.; MacIntosh, H.; Merrin, Kelly L.; Miskelly, A.; Mitchell, M.L.; Moore, K.; Murray, Anna; O'loughlin, P.M.; Paxton, Hannelore; Pogonoski, J.J.; Staples, D.; Watson, J.E.; Wilson, Robin S.; Zhang, J.; Bax, N.J. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)
      Background Our knowledge of the benthic fauna at lower bathyal to abyssal (LBA, > 2000 m) depths off Eastern Australia was very limited with only a few samples having been collected from these habitats over the last ...
