Deep hydrothermal vent ecosystems are dense oases of life, which are mainly sustained by chemosynthetic primary production carried out by microorganisms, some of which are involved in symbioses with key dominant vent taxa. In this ephemeral and patchy habitat, endemic vent species face a double challenge: a dispersal phase through environments radically different from their vent biotope, and the transmission of symbionts that are essential to colonize vent systems. Rimicaris shrimps dominate communities of deep vent fields of the Mid Atlantic Ridge. Here, the study of two species, R. exoculata and R. chacei, living in sympatry, allows us to address issues related to their life cycle and the development of their symbiotic relationships, to u...
