{{Hatnote|From {{cvt|1000|m|ft}} down to around {{cvt|4000|m|ft}}}}

The name stems {{ety|grc|[[wikt:βαθύς|βαθύς]]|deep}}. The ocean is pitch black at this depth apart from occasional [[bioluminescence|bioluminescent]] organisms, such as [[anglerfish]]. No plants live here. Most creatures survive on [[detritus]] known as "[[marine snow]]" falling from the zones above or, like the [[marine hatchetfish]], by preying on other inhabitants of this zone. Other examples of this zone's inhabitants are [[giant squid]], smaller [[squid]], [[viperfish]], [[Saccopharynx|gulper eel]], and [[dumbo octopus]].
