Ecology of Bathyporeia guilliamsoniana

Main Ref.	Gusso, C.C., M.F. Gravina and F.R. Maggiore, 2001
Remarks	Found along near-coastal to open sea zones, often in coarse sediment with low mud content (maximum of 20%) (Ref. 7882). Inhabits fine well sorted sand (Ref. 2780). Main food and feeding type based on another species of the same genus; to be replaced with a better reference (Ref. 96352).
