- First records of emerging benthic invertebrates at a sublittoral soft-bottom habitat in northern Chile Aldo S. Pacheco Gonzalo E. Goméz José M. Riascos Ciencias de la Tierra benthic macrofauna pelagic coupling Diel vertical migrations Some benthic invertebrates perform vertical diel migrations by swimming up from the seabed to the water column, i.e., they emerge. Although such migrations may have important implications for benthic-pelagic coupling, there is no information reporting this type of ecological processes in sublittoral soft-bottom sediments in the Humboldt Current system. Herein, we present the results of a short-term experiment using traps designed to collect emerging invertebrates in a sublittoral site in northern Chile. Seventeen taxa principally composed by peracarids, copepods and ostracods were identified. This report constitutes the first description of an emerging benthic assemblage in the Humboldt Current ecosystem. 2013 artículo científico 0717-3326 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=47928716018 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=479 Revista de Biología Marina y Oceanografía application/pdf Universidad de Valparaíso Revista de Biología Marina y Oceanografía (Chile) Num.2 Vol.48
