Abstract
⺠Live benthic foraminifera were studied at 13 stations in the Cap-Ferret Canyon. ⺠Fauna from the canyon axis were compared with live communities from adjacent areas. ⺠Geochemical data (e.g. OM composition) were used to describe faunal distributions. ⺠Density and diversity along the canyon axis are higher than on the adjacent flank. ⺠This canyon shows lower density but more diverse and complex fauna than Cap-Breton.
