    Abstract Deep‐sea hydrothermal vents are hydrogeological phenomena occurring on the deep ocean bottom, wherever it is a tectonically active area and heated waters reach the seafloor with significant temperatures and pressures. Specific animal communities are strongly associated with these hydrothermal areas, and unique trophic relationships are established among chemolithotrophic bacteria, clams and mussels.

    This article summarizes some advances in the research on deep sea hydrothermal vent communities in the past twenty years. The research content mainly consists of two aspects. One aspest refers to the distributions, species, living habits, feedings, growth rates and their reliabilities on sea floor, etc of modern hydrothermal communities. The other refers to sizes of individuals, chemical components, distributions, conformations, mineralizing modes and textures of the ancient hydrothermal vent communities fossils, as well as their comparisons with the modern hydrothermal vent communities.
