It has been hypothesised that these sulfur-oxidising bacteria, which fix carbon from the water by oxidising sulfides in the hydrothermal fluid, are a significant source of nutrition to the crabs.[1][4][5] The Hoff crabs were found living adjacent to and on the sides of hydrothermal vent chimneys living in close proximity to fluid emanating from the chimneys at temperatures greater than of {{convert|350|C|F}}. At E9, densities of the crabs were observed in excess of 600 per square metre (56 per square foot).[1] Small limpets (a new species of Lepetodrilus) are often found on the carapace apparently grazing on bacteria.[1] Other marine fauna, such as sea anemones (family Actinostolidae), gastropods Gigantopelta chessoia, a species of stalked barnacle (most likely of the genus Vulcanolepas), a pycnogonid close to the genus Sericosura, and a predatory seven armed starfish can be found living together with this species.[1] MediaThe "Hoff crab" nickname was widely reported in the media whilst the species still lacked a binomial name,[6][7][8][9] and David Hasselhoff tweeted favourably in response to his "Hoff" moniker being used to describe a hydrothermal vent crab.[10][11] The species was later given the binomial name Kiwa tyleri, after its discoverer, Paul Tyler of Southampton University.[12][13] ReferencesThis article incorporates CC-BY-2.5 text from Rogers et al.
