Abstract:

This data set contains information on benthic meiofauna collected from the Campeche Region of Mexico. Samples were collected with an 8 core multiple corer on board the Justo Sierra in August 2015. Sediment samples were sliced into 0-1, 1-3, 3-5, and 5-10 cm sections with a precision extruder and preserved in formalin. Upon return to the lab core sections were sieved over 45-μm sieves and hand sorted under a dissecting microscope.
