04/24/2012,17:39:52,michaelvecchione,I checked the literature speculating about the possibility of furrows caused by whales. See http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0967063706002263. They think beaked whales, which are also deep-diving squid eaters (deeper than sperm whales).

04/24/2012,20:24:30,Bill Kiene,For the record, here are some earlier IDs sent to me by Mary Wicksten who is watching via I1.  She will join the eventlog soon:  On the rock with Chrysogorgia at 2:05 PM, the crab of the family Chirostylidae is Uroptychus nitidus.the beautiful red shrimp at 2:36 CST is Aristaeomorpha foliacea. The worm-like white organism on the Swiftia, identified as the Aplacophora, is correct--we've collected this unidentified species during TAMU trips.
04/24/2012,20:25:18,catrionamunro,More accurately, I don't know. It doesn't look like Swiftia.
