“…The increasing rarity of complex habitat (seamounts excluded) and the decline of food quantity and quality with increasing depth argue against strong habitat association in deep environments where flexibility and opportunism might be more advantageous (Ross and Quattrini 2007). The lack of distinct fish and habitat associations below 1400 m (this study), > 800 m off Newfoundland (Baker et al 2012), and at 2836 and 3775 m in the western North Atlantic (Auster et al 1995) support that argument. However, Ross and Quattrini (2007) cautioned that more direct observations are needed, especially below mid-slope depths.…”

“…Although fish habitat association data continue to be lacking in the deep-sea (especially > 1000 m), emerging evidence suggests that fish associations with complex habitat on the mid to upper slope (< ~1000 m) can range from seemingly obligate (this study; Ross and Quattrini 2007;Quattrini et al 2012) to more opportunistic (this study; Costello et al 2005;Auster 2005;Baker et al 2012;Kutti et al 2014) to highly variable or not detectable (Biber et al 2014). Degree of associations may vary by region; however, in most areas of the slope there is an affinity for complex habitats, which may be expressed as differences in species composition, abundance patterns or both.…”
