Description
Data collected with a 2m beamtrawl towed about 200-300m. Dataset contains numbers and combined wet weight of specimen (down to 1 mg) within same species or higher taxonomic unit. Samples are preserved on formalin and then alcohol. After id the material is stored at the Bergen Museum, Bergen, Norway.
