benthos
Definición
- Benthos is the set of aquatic organisms (marine or freshwater) living near the bottom of seas and oceans, lakes and rivers. In contrast, the term pelagos (consisting of plankton and nekton) is used to designate all the organisms that occupy the upper layer of water, from the bottom to the surface. The adjective benthic is derived from benthos and is used to specify that a species lives in the seabed zone, either close to the seabed (vagile organisms), or directly on the substratum (epibenthic), or even in the substratum (endobenthic), and that this species may be sessile (fixed) or vagile (mobile).
