Traditional taxonomical methods, an appropriate Benthic Biotic Index incorporating the Taxonomical Sufficiency concept and Biological Traits Analyses, were applied concurrently to evaluate the long-term variations in the benthic ecology of subtidal zones of a Marine-Protected Area subjected to prevalent oil and gas industrial activities. Our evaluation spanned two comparable surveys conducted 9 years apart (2010 vs. 2019).

The northward distribution limit of groundwater fauna is generally dictated by the extent of glacial ice sheets during the Pleistocene. However, some taxa can be found far above this limit, sometimes on isolated oceanic islands, implying long-term survival in subglacial subterranean refugia. Here we report a peculiar assemblage comprising two new depigmented and blind (stygomorphic) amphipods from the subarctic ancient lake El'gygytgyn (northern Far East): Palearcticarellus hyperboreus sp.
