The fauna of the lower horizon of the bathyal zone (750 to 2,000 m) and of the abyssal zone, considerably impoverished both qualitatively and quan- titatively, are characterized also by a series of colourful forms (Fig. 406, 6-11): the Foraminifera Bathysiphon; the Porifera Cryptospongia enigmatica pierced by the long tube of the polychaete Potamilla symbiotica; the single madre- poric coral Caryophyllia clavus; the sea-whip Radiceps verrillii; the decapod.
