The agonistic encounters observed among crabs and fish indicate that carrion represents significant local energy enrichment to the benthic community (Stock- ton and DeLaca 1982). Spotted Hagfish were the major sca\'engers at 50 m and were largely nocturnal, consistent with the find- ings of Femholm (1974). These fish play an important role in the turnover and cycling of nutrients (Lesser et al. 1996; Collins et al. 1999). We observed a much hisher rate of tissue loss at the 50 m site where hasfish.
