“…Similarly noteworthy are the fi nds of three new gastropod species in the Bering and Chukchi Seas (Chaban 2008 ;Sirenko 2009 ), two of which were actually collected over 70 years ago. All of these and other species, including several amphipods (B. Stransky, unpublished observations), cnidarians (Rodriguez et al 2009 ), and a sea cucumber (Rogacheva 2007 ), are in the larger and better studied size fractions. Considerably less taxonomic effort was spent on meiofaunal groups during ArcOD, but new species were recorded among benthic and hyperbenthic copepods (see, for example, Kotwicki & Fiers 2005 ), Komokiacea (O. Kamenskaya, unpublished observations), and the nematodes ( J. Sharma, personal communication).…”
