| Abstract | Benthic Ostracoda were recovered from 19 box core samples collected during the cruise SO 136 of the German R/VSONNE in the Tasman Sea and Southern Ocean (SW Pacific sector). The detailed taxonomic study of more than 10.000 specimens recovered from eleven box-corer samples from circumpolar deep water of the Emerald Basin (Southern Ocean) and the S Tasman Rise (Tasman Sea) led to the recognition of 34 genera and 63 species, of which 9 new to science. Additionally, ten key cosmopolitan and endemic taxa were re-studied and re-illustrated from type material from the Natural History Museum (London), the Utrecht Micropaleontological Collection, the Senckenberg Museum (Frankfurt) and the University of Canterbury (New Zealand).Oxygen and carbon isotopic values were measured on specimens from 17 samples from the Campbell Plateau and the S Tasman Rise. In particular, four podocopid ostracod genera were analysed: the in-faunalKrithe and die epifaunalFallacihowella, Poseidonamicus andBradleya. The stable isotopes proxies provided useful indications about the microhabitats, the diets and the temperature sensitivity of each tax-on. Additionally, different calcification rates and different microhabitats were claimed to explain the different isotopic signature of adults and juveniles ofKrithe.Statistical analyses were performed on the relative abundance in percentages of 73 species identified in 19 sediment samples. Both species (R-mode) and samples (Q-mode) were grouped by cluster analyses and detrended correspondence analyses (DCA) using the software package PAST (ver. 0.94).Q-mode cluster analyses partially supported the observations made by previous authors that the ostracod specific thresholds are controlled by the water mass characteristics. Q- and R-mode detrended correspondence analyses, on the contrary, indicated that distribution patterns must be driven by factors other than the water mass characteristics. Seven assemblages are recognised and the characteristic or most abundant species are discussed for their ecological demands. Bottom topography, sediment type, CaC0$_{3}$ content, and flux of organic carbon interplay with the water mass characteristics creating a complex network of ecological gradients. Within each of the identified assemblages the species specific thresholds are not identical and often the range of the ecological gradients of the most abundant species do not include that of the characteristic species. Most likely, dynamics of co-occurring species take place which could involve Ostracoda and other benthic animals belonging to the same trophic groupings. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
