New paper for deep-sea larvae with occurrence data available in OBIS and GBIF

We are pleased to announce not only a new paper but also the availability of new data for deep-sea larvae collected near three deep-sea hydrothermal vent fields [East Pacific Rise 9 50 N, Mariana Back-Arc Snail (and Archaean), and Pescadero Basin Auka]:
