Definition: An organism which obtains food primarily by subsurface deposit feeding. Reid WDK, Wigham BD, McGill RAR, Polunin NVC (2012) Elucidating trophic pathways in benthic deep-sea assemblages of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge north and south of the Charlie-Gibbs Fracture Zone. Mar Ecol Prog Ser 463:89-103. doi:10.3354/meps09863
Definition: aquatic consumers oriented head-down in sediments, where they feed at depth and transport sediment through their guts to the sediment surface.[18] Major upward-conveyor groups include burrowing polychaetes like the lugworm, Arenicola marina, and Thalassinid shrimps.
