Examples of the benthic assemblages considered in this study. Deep-water oyster reefs (DWOR) in the Adriatic Sea at ca. 90 m (A, ID 1), and at ca. 100 m (B, ID 5); coralligenous formations in the Ionian Sea at ca. 90 m (C, ID 11) and at ca. 70 m (D, ID 17); cnidarian-dominated assemblages at ca. 110 m in the Tyrrhenian Sea (E, ID 18) and at ca. 150 m in the Ionian Sea (F, ID 14); rhodolith beds at ca. 70 m in the Tyrrhenian Sea (G,H, ID 19); soft-bottom assemblages in the Tyrrhenian Sea at ca. 60 m (I, ID 16) and at ca. 100 m (L, ID 25). Numbers refer to IDs in (Table 1).
