Description: Amphipod Neohela sp. There are two
closely related species of Neohela (N. lamina
and N. montrosa) described for Norwegian waters both of which
occur at shallower depth than
Dalsnuten.

Description: This burrow was formed by the
amphipod Neohela sp.
These burrows were a common
feature of the seabed at Dalsnuten
(and other deep sites including
Asterix and Edvarda). The origin
and function of the smaller burrows at the side are unknown. Item Type: Image Title: Neohela sp. Copyright: SERPENT project Species: Neohela sp.
