Forming thickets or reef-like structures, they provide habitat for rich and diverse fish and thickets or reef-like structures, they provide habitat for rich and diverse fish and in vertebrate communities. Some communities may even be considered as hotspots of biological diversity. These important deep-sea coral and sponge habitats have been discovered on continental margins and slopes, canyons, and seamounts around the world and in many areas in the U.S. exclusive economic zone"--Page [2].
