[14:15:08] mariadiaz leaves the room
[14:16:26] <johnreed> Maybe Hertwigia
[14:17:44] <michaelvecchione> those could be bobtail eggs
[14:18:35] <christarabenold> Question from social media: Jeremy Horowitz on Twitter asked: Who can we speak to to ask about collecting some more black corals, to fill gaps in our growing antipath UCE tree?
[14:18:47] <christarabenold> Also, please explain antipath UCE tree.
[14:18:53] <okexnav> LAT : 25.562846 , LON : -79.87919 , DEPTH : 563.2836 m, TEMP : 6.94529 C, SAL : 34.88995 PSU, DO : 4.44572 mg/l
[14:19:17] <johnreed> Chaceon fenneri
[14:20:13] <stephaniefarrington> I dont know anything about the UCE tree
[14:20:34] <mariadiaz> The yellow sponge was too elastic and soft when we collected
[14:21:00] <mariadiaz> So I thought Demospongiae maybe Niphates or Amphimedon
[14:21:46] <mariadiaz> I consulted Rob Van Soest, and he thought that might be a Niphates but with that color it is unique , and not described. We have to wait to see the spicules to corroborate the ID
[14:23:54] <okexnav> LAT : 25.562972 , LON : -79.879293 , DEPTH : 563.2349 m, TEMP : 6.95081 C, SAL : 34.89155 PSU, DO : 4.43781 mg/l
[14:24:04] <mariadiaz> Is it possible to collect this species, might be Euplectella
[14:25:29] michaelvecchione leaves the room
[14:27:37] <johnreed> Could it be Heterotella cris?
[14:28:54] <okexnav> LAT : 25.562954 , LON : -79.879312 , DEPTH : 563.1836 m, TEMP : 6.9474 C, SAL : 34.89028 PSU, DO : 4.43348 mg/l
[14:29:02] <mariadiaz> It is probably Euplectella, lets see if it is rooted to the sand with long hairy spicules
[14:32:30] <mariadiaz> Excellent
[14:33:20] <mariadiaz> I am having trouble with the SeaTube V2, it gives me amessage: ERROR, No valid live streams for active dive! any suggestion?
[14:33:36] <stephaniefarrington> are you clicking dive 9?
[14:33:49] <stephaniefarrington> i mean dive 8

[14:34:05] <stephaniefarrington> your logged in
[14:34:08] <stephaniefarrington> ?
[14:34:31] <mariadiaz> So if we do not see barba like spicules at the base then it would belong to other genus of Euplectellidae
[14:34:46] <stephaniefarrington> i didnt see it either

[15:14:53] <johnreed> looks like blind lobster steph  and I see in muddy areas. can you see its eyes
[15:16:18] <mariadiaz> Many more of the short yellow fans
[15:17:08] <mariadiaz> Yes Stylochordila like, definitively a different species to the one we saw before

[15:19:46] <scottfrance> With regard to earlier FaceBook question, in case it was not answered: No, pycnogonid sea spiders do not produce silk so cannot build webs.
[15:20:29] <meganmcculler> cladorhizid sponge?
[15:20:35] <scottfrance> This is a carnivorous sponge.
[15:20:51] <scottfrance> Agree with Megan: cladorhizid sponge.
[15:21:30] <mariadiaz> Incredible,
[15:21:37] <mariadiaz> Yes
[15:23:59] <okexnav> LAT : 25.563211 , LON : -79.880207 , DEPTH : 560.4964 m, TEMP : 7.05472 C, SAL : 34.89537 PSU, DO : 4.36108 mg/l
[15:24:18] <traceysutton> I just emailed Mike V and Heather J to get ID on squid...
[15:24:38] <johnreed> That lobster may have been Acanthicaris- couldn't remember name
[15:25:47] <stephaniefarrington>  the white blind lobster? did i miss that??? darn it!!!
[15:29:00] <okexnav> LAT : 25.563252 , LON : -79.880394 , DEPTH : 558.8972 m, TEMP : 7.07202 C, SAL : 34.89565 PSU, DO : 4.34505 mg/l
[15:30:56] <scottfrance> Some kind of Plexauridae being overgrown by zoanthid
[15:31:18] <mariadiaz> Phakelia cf connexiva in the back
[15:32:12] <mariadiaz> Farrea in th e front the Hexactinellida
[15:32:41] <meganmcculler> more cladorhizids are the spiky balls in the back
[15:32:48] <scottfrance> From this distance those whote balls look like mini hydrocorals...
[15:33:35] <scottfrance> But I could buy that they are cladorhizids. I don't recognize them.
[15:33:50] <meganmcculler> could we zoom on the white spiky things?
[15:33:58] <meganmcculler> oop maybe later
[15:34:02] <okexnav> LAT : 25.563315 , LON : -79.880394 , DEPTH : 559.5433 m, TEMP : 7.0695 C, SAL : 34.89555 PSU, DO : 4.34851 mg/l
[15:36:53] michaelvecchione leaves the room
[15:37:08] <scottfrance> Anthomastus as well
[15:37:42] <scottfrance> I agree with Megan that this is a sponge (the spiky ball)
[15:37:49] <meganmcculler> I think the balls and the branches are cladorhizids
[15:38:04] <scottfrance> And I believe the branchy one is also a cladorhizid
[15:38:46] <meganmcculler> we could collect a small rock with those on them
[15:39:01] <okexnav> LAT : 25.563281 , LON : -79.880593 , DEPTH : 555.7559 m, TEMP : 7.09665 C, SAL : 34.89664 PSU, DO : 4.33604 mg/l
[15:39:14] <meganmcculler> or just that little clump
[15:42:21] <scottfrance> Acanthogorgia
[15:43:10] <johnreed> yes same as before
[15:44:01] <okexnav> LAT : 25.563303 , LON : -79.880586 , DEPTH : 555.6645 m, TEMP : 7.09042 C, SAL : 34.89642 PSU, DO : 4.34222 mg/l
[15:45:49] <scottfrance> No doubt some fat asteroid is sitting in the area having munched its way through this colony!
[15:46:30] <kimberlygalvez> hahaha
[15:46:49] <meganmcculler> these look different though. So we have a few different kinds of cladorhizid here. Neat!
[15:47:14] <scottfrance> I have seen cladorhizids growing like sunbursts, but perhaps not this fat/bulbous
[15:48:32] <mariadiaz> Lets call it Stylocordylidae
[15:49:02] <okexnav> LAT : 25.563304 , LON : -79.880586 , DEPTH : 555.1592 m, TEMP : 7.12075 C, SAL : 34.89977 PSU, DO : 4.33156 mg/l
[15:50:11] <mariadiaz> If it is a Cladorhizidae it would be order Poecilosclerida, if it is Stylochordylidae is  from the Order  Suberitida
[15:50:44] <mariadiaz> But they are really unique from any part of the sponge world they are coming
[15:54:02] <okexnav> LAT : 25.563361 , LON : -79.88058 , DEPTH : 554.8153 m, TEMP : 7.12562 C, SAL : 34.89845 PSU, DO : 4.32656 mg/l

[16:00:24] <mariadiaz> THANKS SO MUCH!!!
[16:02:25] <scottfrance> D-clade isidid, could be Eknomisis (volcano-shaped polyps) or Keratoisis
[16:04:03] <okexnav> LAT : 25.563347 , LON : -79.880547 , DEPTH : 554.9337 m, TEMP : 7.17898 C, SAL : 34.90549 PSU, DO : 4.3111 mg/l
[16:04:15] <scottfrance> Interestingly, the polyps on that broken branch can continue to do well because they don't actually need to be connected to the rest of the colony: they just need to be in a position to feed themselves.
[16:05:31] <scottfrance> Looks the same from here
[16:09:04] <okexnav> LAT : 25.563361 , LON : -79.880624 , DEPTH : 554.5314 m, TEMP : 7.18253 C, SAL : 34.9024 PSU, DO : 4.30684 mg/l

[16:19:56] heatherjudkins leaves the room
[16:20:37] <meganmcculler> yeah looks like bryozoans
[16:22:41] <mariadiaz> There are very similar in morphology species from the carnivorous genus Abyssocladia, only 3-4 species from the Atlantic, mid atlantic ridge, and Brazil. But Lolli-pop like only 3 species from the Pacific collected in the Mariannas Trench Okeanus expedition

[19:51:50] <asakomatsumoto> Hello all
[19:52:00] <traceysutton> the red "V" on the caudal peduncle differentiates them from the other scorpaenoids (great to ID from a distance)
[19:53:29] <scottfrance> I missed that reddish/orange coral back there. Was it a  seapen or Swiftia?
[19:53:38] <stephaniefarrington> i didnt see it
[19:54:04] <stephaniefarrington> probably a pen, we are in sandy area? but IDK how thick the sed is?

[19:54:44] <scottfrance> Just reading "object object" on Ateph's last 2 entries.
[19:54:55] <kimberlygalvez> I think it was a swiftia
[19:55:04] <scottfrance> Thanks.
[19:55:08] <kimberlygalvez> definitely had the polyp structure of a coral
[19:55:10] <traceysutton> that's a marbled catshark (my bad)
[19:56:00] <traceysutton> she's been bitten by something larger...
[19:56:17] <markmueller> I emailed Jason Chaytor, Amy Gartman and Alden Denny to see if they can tune in and weigh in on the nodules.
[19:57:00] <kimberlygalvez> @Mark, that's great. I hope we can hear from them. 
[19:57:16] <kimberlygalvez> I'm used used to seeing so much area with nodules in this area. 
[19:58:04] <kimberlygalvez> Likely phosphatic encrusted, but we did see some substrate with a ferromanganese crust

[20:11:02] <kiramizell> hi! It's Amy and Kira. This looks like it is ferromanganese crust, which is very common and not unexpected as it covers most old, exposed, rock surfaces. We don't know how thick it is. The underlying substate is likely phosphorite, this region is supposed to be mainly unconsolidated phosphatic sediment
[20:11:13] <kiramizell> haven't seen anything that looks like nodules
[20:11:56] scottfrance leaves the room
[20:12:09] <kiramizell> would not expect nodules in this region, if anything looks like nodules it is likely cobbles rounded by currents
[20:13:16] <kimberlygalvez> @Kira, yeah. that's what we were seeing. Not nodules necessarily, but cobbles and what is expected to be broken down fragments of the undersyling substrate
[20:14:27] <okexnav> LAT : 25.564462 , LON : -79.886134 , DEPTH : 523.0218 m, TEMP : 7.51062 C, SAL : 34.93239 PSU, DO : 4.22938 mg/l
[20:16:22] <kiramizell> could also just be exposed phosphorite, which can be dark brown
[20:17:17] <sarabashah> Hello all, Sara, Gregor, and Anna Ling here. These limestones are 15 Myrs old dated with strontium.
[20:18:08] <traceysutton> Quasi-funny story - I was on a Sea-Link dive here at the Terrace and we saw this fish (underworld skate) - the date was 6/6/06. I thought that was funny.

[20:46:36] <scottfrance> After seastar can we have a brief look at orangish coral to front left (will have to pull back to see it)... Unless you already know what it is.
[20:46:58] <scottfrance> More yellow-brown than orange
[20:47:25] <scottfrance> It is just above left or rosefish
[20:47:27] <sarabashah> The limestones look very karstic. We agree, it's probably mostly encrustation.
[20:47:39] <scottfrance> Right in center now
[20:47:43] <scottfrance> To left of primnod
[20:48:24] <scottfrance> I meant the fleshy one to the left.
[20:48:36] <scottfrance> It is "just" a nepththeidae.
