(South Cornwall)	Point	50.1590639964935	-5.03808259682638	WGS84	140812	Berthella plumula	FALSE	Not set	Not set	FALSE	The shallow maerl bed was 90% living and composed of Phymatolithon calcareum. Many burrowing species were present and large numbers of Asterias rubens and Cancer pagurus were working over this area. Below -16m the seabed was sloping downwards and had rocky outcrops. The latter had small amounts of Verruca stroemia and Nemertesia antennina and clumps of smaller hydroids, particularly Campanularia hincksii and Halecium spp. At the bottom of the channel, -34m, there was a large bed of Pecten maximus.

(South Cornwall)	Point	49.9642682182293	-5.28659705996663	WGS84	126792	Callionymus lyra	FALSE	Not set	Not set	FALSE	Cerianthus lloydii has been given a nominal abundance value of Present for this record as in Arev it had no abundance value. Kelp forest extended down to -17m but vertical and overhanging surfaces were dominated by Corynactis viridis, sponges (especially Cliona celata and Pachymatisma johnstonia, both of which were particularly large) and some hydrozoan/bryozoan turf. Large clumps of Tubularia indivisa were found under overhangs and Alcyonium digitatum was locally abundant. An area of medium - coarse sand was recorded at -22m. This contained large numbers of Cerianthus lloydii and was being heavily worked by a number of large Luidia ciliaris.

(South Cornwall)	Point	50.1564893663513	-4.96370882548842	WGS84	126792	Callionymus lyra	FALSE	Not set	Not set	FALSE	The kelp forest was jointly dominated by Laminaria ochroleuca and Saccorhiza polyschides, with an understorey of foliose red algae. Most animal life was restricted to crevices, probably because of grazing pressure. NOTE: Substratum % data are converted from the original substratum 1-3 scoring system.

Vertical surfaces here were colonised by Corynactis viridis and in places dominated by Verruca stroemia. In the deeper gullies there was 30% cover by hydroids, and some large patches of Actinothoe sphyrodeta. NOTE: Substratum % data are converted from the original substratum 1-3 scoring system.
