Fig. 2. During feeding experiments, microplastics were observed inside and attached to the inner house and inside the gut of giant larvaceans.

Microplastic particles in varying size ranges (from 10 to 600 μm) are represented by different colors (for example, red, yellow, green, and orange; see table S1 for specific particle sizes). Image corresponds to B. stygius specimen D5 from dive D870 (table S1). Scale bar, 2 cm. ih, inner house; bt, buccal tube; mp, microplastics; g, gut; tr, trunk; m, mouth; t, tail; r, ramp of inner house.
