organism: Tetrastemma sp. JLN-Bocas-E1
description: Samples consisted of at least two replicates, each of which consisted of about 2–4 L of sediment from the upper 5 cm of the sea bottom collected over a homogeneously sandy area (about 2–4 m2), sampled by scooping the top layer of sand with a jar or a bucket. The sediments were collected by hand from littoral beaches (depth: 0–0.5 m), by apnea freediving in the sublittoral zone (depth: 1–4 m); and with SCUBA.Isolates   divers offshore (depth: 6–16 m). Sediments were processed by hand through 45 μm or 63 μm sieves. Individual animals were identified by stereo and compound light microscopes Microscopes.
