Ciliophora</p> <p>Three species of commensal ciliates Cothurnia maritima Ehrenberg 1838 on oligochaete Tubificoides sp.; Paracineta livadiana (Mereschkowsky 1881) and Corynophrya lyngbyi (Ehrenberg 1834) on harpacticoid copepods Amphiascella subdebilis (Willey 1935), Haloschizopera pontarchis Por 1959, Cletodes tenuipes Scott 1896 and Enhydrosoma longifurcatum (Sars 1909) were found in the Bosporus region of the Black Sea deep-water (200 and 248 m depths) under hypoxic/anoxic conditions (Sergeeva &amp; Dovgal 2014).</p> <p>Vertical distribution of the free-living benthic Ciliophora in the Bosporus area at the depths from 120 to 300 m was characterized by two peaks of abundance at 103 and 250 m water depth (Fig. 5).</p> <p>In the Bosporus area Ciliophora was registered in all layers of the bottom sediment. The most inhibited are the upper layers (0–2 cm) of sediment (Fig. 6). Ciliates abundance peaks can be connected with food accumulations.

Hydrogen sulfide was registered beginning from 160– 170 m. The ciliates found in mentioned samples were the representatives of genera Chilodonella Strand 1928, Trachelocerca Ehrenberg 1834, Tracheloraphis Dragesco 1960 and Loxophyllum Dujardin 1841. At the same time more than 30 morphological species were recognized among mentioned materials (Sergeeva &amp; Zaika 2008). The peaks of ciliate abundances were registered at depths of 120, 160– 190, and 240 m in the same region (Sergeeva et al. 2008). Average abundance peak coincides with the depths of hydrogen sulfide appearance. Besides, according to the data available, at the same depths there are pelagic peaks of intensity of bacterial chemosynthesis and bacteria production. Therefore ciliates abundance peaks can be connected with food accumulations. The most number of ciliates morphotypes (8) was at the 240 m depth, in the region of the lower peak of abundance.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/038187E8B977FFAD578637BE2A37FDA7	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Polychaeta</p> <p>The distribution of Polychaeta abundance in the depth range 75–250 m is very uneven. In the distribution of Polychaeta marked peaks occurred at the depth 88, 162 and 250 m. Maximal abundance value of Polychaeta reached up to 9360 indiv.*m -2 at the depth of 88 m, the second largest peak of polychaetes inhabitation (7280 indiv.*m -2) occurred at the depth 250 m (Fig. 13). At the depth 162 m polychaetes almost entirely were represented by young individuals of species Vigtorniella zaikai Kiseleva and Protodrilus sp. Usually, these species inhabited suboxic layer and upper border of the hydrogen sulfide (Zaika et al. 1999, Zaika &amp; Sergeeva 2008). At the depth 250 m of polychaetes only species V. zaika was found, whereas in other parts of the Black Sea this species had its maximum of abundance at a shallower depth (150–170 m) (Zaika &amp; Sergeeva 2012). The planktonic larvae of V. zaikai dwell in layer with certain physical and chemical characteristics. They occurred in all studied samples of near bottom water, sediment surface detritus and in the upper layer (0–3 cm) of sediment (Fig. 14).</p> <p>10000</p> <p>.</p> <p>8000</p> <p>indiv 6000</p> <p>, 4000</p> <p>N</p> <p>2000</p> <p>0</p> <p>75 82 88 103 122 162 190 250 300</p> <p>De pth, m</p> <p>0-1 cm 1-2 cm 2-3 cm 3-4 cm 4-5 cm 5-7 cm Depth (m)</p></div> 	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/038187E8B978FFA1578634272AFBFCEB	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
