“…The most widespread deep−sea amphipod Eurythenes gryllus was shown to be a complex of several ge− netically divergent taxa which were vertically stratified (Bucklin et al 1987;Stoddart and Lowry 2004;Thurston et al 2002). A similar result was documented for the hadal lyssianassoid Hirondellea gigas (France 1993).…”

“…A study of the deep-sea amphipod Eurythenes gryllus found that individuals from the summit of Horizon Guyot were genetically distinct from individuals near the base of the guyot and at other deep-sea sites (Bucklin et al 1987). It was further found that there was genetic homogeneity of E. gryllus populations within the same depth zone at the scale of ocean basins, but genetically distinct populations at different depths, indicating that depth may be an important factor influencing population structure of seamount fauna (France and Kocher 1996).…”

“…It has been stated before that selection pressures may not differ over large distances in the deep sea (e.g. Bucklin, Wilson, and Smith 1987), however, in the case of scavenging amphipods, biotic factors such as food supply, in the shape of animal carcasses sinking down to the seafloor, and predation pressure, might vary across the different ocean basins and even at much more localised scales. The different Eurythenes species, and in particular those occurring in bathymetric and geographic sympatry, might occupy distinct ecological niches, being specialised on particular types of food falls or by displaying a distinct feeding behaviour, e.g.…”
