摘要：

From the detailed examination of more than 80,000 specimens comprising of 100 species and 9 subspecies of protobranch bivalves collected from the deep-sea floor of the Atlantic, it has been possible for the first time to determine and compare the diversity and distribution patterns in ten abyssal basins of an abyssal higher taxon. In addition, the general ecological characteristics of a major deep-sea taxon which has one of the longest known geological histories are presented. Overall this has provided an opportunity to debate the origin and evolution of the Protobranchia in the Atlantic following its formation ca 130Ma ago. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
