Cruise AT37-13. The locality "Mount Quepos" was renamed "Parrita Seep" on the ROC HITS 2018 expedition (AT42-03). Notes from Lisa Levin dive log: 10:35, 1401 m, 4 large white (vesicomyid clams collected). Sitting end up in the sediment. Into Pin 05 insert (Box C). These look like Archivesica gigas.; 10:44, 1401 m, 4 mussles collected from rock very near clam patch. Also placed in pink 05 (Box C) insert. We called this area 'Cornucopia' because tubeworms, clams and mussels were living in close proximity. Matched xy, depth to Levin lab animal and community collection log. Sample: 4924-ClamsMussels, 9.03170315, -84.620843, 1401 m. Zone: Active.
