Sügavmere

Sügavmere refers to a type of sea cucumber found in the marine waters of Estonia and other European coastal regions. Unlike other species, sügavmere is unique in its appearance and habitat preferences.

Sügavmere belongs to the Phrustu species, which is known for its distinctive stalk-like appendages and ability to live in depths of up to 10 meters. The species is found in sandy and muddy areas of the sea floor, where it feeds on small invertebrates and organic matter.

In comparison to other related species, sügavmere has a stockier build and a lighter-colored skin. The surface of sügavmere's skin is also often characterized by the presence of small bumps and nodules, which are unique to this particular species.

Sügavmere are generally nocturnal, emerging from the sediment at night to feed and then returning to sheltered areas during the day. Their behavior and ecological role in the ecosystem are not well studied, and more research is needed to understand their place within the marine food chain.

In Estonia, sügavmere is considered a species of interest due to its unique features and localized distribution. Efforts have been made to study the behavior and habitat preferences of sügavmere, with attention also focused on the potential impacts of human activities on the local marine environment and ecosystems.
