The benthic zone is the ecological region at the lowest level of a body of water such as an ocean or a lake, including the sediment surface and some sub-surface layers. Organisms living in this zone are called benthos, e.g. the benthic invertebrate community, including crustaceans and polychaetes. The organisms generally live in close relationship with the substrate bottom and many are permanently attached to the bottom.
Benthos: Inhabitants of the Benthic Zone. The organisms that live in the benthic zone are collectively called benthos.. They include crustaceans, mollusks, worms, fish, and any other type of organism that makes its home on or in the seabed. The majority of benthos are scavengers or detritus feeders that eat decomposing organic matter.
