Plate 14.4 Time-series from transects of sediment-surface photographs of abundances
(filled blue dots) of the holothurian Elpidia minutissima and the echinoid
Echinocrepis rostrata at Station M seaward from southern California, USA. Time-
series of median individual sizes (open red circles) of the two species were measured
for samples from a trawl attached behind the camera sled.
