  • This seems to be the same subsample but was placed in 2 containers for proper preservation. The sample label indicates there is no difference between these and should be considered within the same lot. The metadata is the same for both (pasted here). Eventlog Description= white lace sponge growing on dead coral maybe, Farrea sponge; WetLab Description – Overall sample= Several fragments of Ferrea sponge, fragments many sizes, color translucent/white, one brittle star and 2 shrimp, 1 isopod, worm; WetLab Description – Subsample=Brittle star + associated invertebrates; Subsample Biometrics=N/A
