Other important taxa (between 0.1 and 3% of the total community) were Opisthobranchia, Amphipoda Caprellidea, Nematoda, Bivalvia, Tanaidacea, Oligochaeta, juveniles and megalopae of Brachyura, Scyphozoa, juvenile Pisces Teleostei, Ascidiacea, Anthozoa and Plathelminthes. Coleoptera, Anomura, Ophiuroidea, Cephalopoda, Leptostraca, Cephalochordata, Pycnogonida, zoea larvae of shrimp, Hydrozoa, Brachyura Corystidae and unidentified eggs were rare (<0.1c /1 0 of the total community)."; String FreshFlag "0"; String GBIF_UUID "5a474c62-9f7c-465c-8df1-3dddda11bb1f"; Float64 geospatial_lat_max -4.406; Float64 geospatial_lat_min -4.45; String geospatial_lat_units "degrees_north"; Float64 geospatial_lon_max 39.53; Float64 geospatial_lon_min 39.5; String geospatial_lon_units "degrees_east"; String history "2025-03-09T23:38:41Z (local files) 2025-03-09T23:38:41Z http://erddap.eurobis.org/tabledap/hyperbenthos_gazi_bay_1994.das"; String infoUrl "[{'DOIID': 79, 'PublicationYear': 2016, 'DOI': '10.14284/79', 'Citation': 'Luhunga B.Y.; Mees J.; Fundamental and Applied Marine Ecology Post Graduate Program (FAME).

The URL specifies what you want: the dataset, a description of the graph or the subset of the data, and the file type for the response.
Tabledap request URLs must be in the form
https://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/erddap/tabledap/datasetID.fileType{?query}
For example,
https://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/erddap/tabledap/pmelTaoDySst.htmlTable?longitude,latitude,time,station,wmo_platform_code,T_25&time>=2015-05-23T12:00:00Z&time<=2015-05-31T12:00:00Z
Thus, the query is often a comma-separated list of desired variable names,
followed by a collection of
constraints (e.g., variable<value),
each preceded by '&' (which is interpreted as "AND").
