Description:The objective of this photo identification guide is to provide documentation of Alcyonacean specimens collected and/or photographed from the Pinnacle Trend, using in-situ and ex-situ photography, with light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The collection of samples utilized from the DWH NRDA does not represent a comprehensive census of every taxon that could possibly occur in the area. However, it provides edification of the most common taxa observed and collected. The aim of this guide is to help support video/image based analysis in future surveys of the area. The guide provides remarks regarding the recommended level of precision in terms of identifications from in-situ imagery. Such knowledge provides a necessary baseline for future studies investigating these critical organisms.
