Abstract
Material collected from the RRS Discovery Cruise 300 to the Crozet Islands contained a new species of elasipodid
holothurian Peniagone crozeti sp. nov. This new species dominated the megafauna at an abyssal site to the east of the
islands under an area of high surface productivity, but was found in low abundance at a site located south of the islands
under a high nutrient low chlorophyll regime, typical for many areas in the Southern Ocean. Peniagone crozeti differs
from other members of the genus by the shape of its calcareous deposits.
