Zusammenfassung:The other individual, a smaller crustacean, is tentatively identified as a munnopsid isopod, based on morphology and similar walking and jumping movements observed for other hadal munnopsid isopods. Because these individuals were not collected, it is not possible to obtain species-level identifications. According to Dr. Alan J. Jamieson from the University of Aberdeen, there are multiple species within the swarm on the video.
