        <div class="cbp-l-inline-desc">This black coral (<i>Stauropathes</i>) covered an unusual individual that shoreside and shipboard scientists had difficulty identifying from the video. The organism was collected and upon recovery, tentatively identified as a large aplacophoran (shell-less mollusk), covered in spicules that give it a “fuzzy” appearance. It was collected during Dive 16 of the Papahānaumokuākea ROV and Mapping expedition at a depth of 1,879 meters (6,165 feet).</p></div>
