261 voucher specimens were collected during a marine survey transit between Darwin and Cairns from 15-24 October 2012. The program, led by Geoscience Australia, used an ROV and benthic sled to gather sessile invertebrates like sponges and octocorals for biodiversity and biodiscovery research. Sponges were the most abundant group, with ~139 kg of biomass and 93 voucher specimens collected.
