	Benthos - Wikipedia
		Das Wort Benthos (auch Benthon) leitet sich vom griechischen to bénthos ab, was soviel bedeutet wie Meerestiefe und das Dickicht.
		Tierisches Benthos wie beispielsweise Krustentiere, Plattfische oder Muscheln stellen auch für die menschlichen Ernährung eine wertvolle Proteinquelle dar.
		Beim pflanzlichen Benthos ist kommerziell besonders Tang wichtig (bemerkenswert ist der Kelp, der an flachen Küstenabschnitten mehr als 60 m hohe Wälder bilden kann), dieser findet Verwendung bei der Herstellung verschiedener Nahrungsmittel und Industrieprodukte.

	Freshwater Benthic Macroinvertebrates
		The benthos include crustaceans such as crayfish, mollusks such as clams and snails, aquatic worms and the immature forms of aquatic insects such as stonefly and mayfly nymphs.
		Many species of benthos are able to move around and expand their distribution by drifting with currents to a new location during the aquatic phase of their life or by flying to a new stream during their terrestrial phase.
		Benthos represents an extremely diverse group of aquatic animals, and the large number of species possess a wide range of responses to stressors such as organic pollutants, sediments, and toxicants.

		The low-level Paleozoic benthos was dominated by fixed suspension feeders, mainly the brachiopods supported by the bryozoans and microcarnivores such as the rugose and tabulate corals.
		The intermediate-level benthos (50-200 mm) was dominated by sponges, corals, giant bivalves, giant brachiopods, stalked echinoderms and fixed dendroid graptolites.
		Cephalopod mollusks such as the orthoconic nautiloids patrolled the benthos, in a role as the main macrophagous predator.
