The Atacama Trench is a deep-water channel running along the Pacific coast of Chile and Peru, South America. In 2018, SUNY Geneseo marine biologist Mackenzie Gerringer was part of an international team of scientists who used free-falling “landers” to study the trench, gathering images and specimens of deep-sea creatures. The team discovered a new snailfish species unique to the Atacama Trench and to all other known fish species.
