We report on still/video photographic studies in 2018/9 of diurnal and nocturnal benthic
scavenging on carrion in shallow water (2 m and 12 m depths) within Lough Hyne (a …

The activity of two scavenging deep–sea fishes occupying the same niche in overlapping
depth zones were compared by in situ measurements of swimming speeds, tail–beat …

Discarded by-catch in prawn fisheries is likely to affect trophic balance including the
population structure and function of both the exploited species and scavengers on discards …

The fate of cetacean carcasses in the deep-sea was investigated using autonomous lander
vehicles incorporating time-lapse camera and acoustic tracking systems, as well as fish and …

As in the terrestrial environment there are diverse and abundant scavengers operating in
most marine habitats. These scavengers are represented by many different kinds of animals …

The responses to bait, mean reaction times and rates of movement of locally important
epibenthic scavenging invertebrates were compared in static water experiments. Eight …

Demersal trawl fisheries generate large quantities of discards which temporarily increase
the amount of carrion available to benthic communities and lead to a faster energetic turn …

The attractions to bait of eight species of epibenthic scavenging invertebrates, ie Asterias
rubens L., Buccinum undatum L., Cancer pagurus L., Ophiocomina nigra (Abildgaard) …

Demersal fishes on the continental rise and slope were sampled by trawl, baited trap and a
baited camera. Seventy-one different species were trawled, but only 18 species approached …

During remotely operated vehicle operations on the UK continental shelf to the west of
Shetland (60° 6′ N 4° 4′ W) at a depth of 400 m, Munida sarsi, a common benthic …
