Egg yolk jellyfish (scientific name: Cotylorhiza tuberculata) is a marine organism of the order Phylloscopus of the order Porcupine jellyfish. There is also a name of the same name as the banshee in Greek mythology, "Medusa". Jellyfish are larger, with an umbrella diameter of generally 35 cm and a maximum of 50 cm. The umbrella is disc-shaped, and due to the color of the body's reproductive glands or other structures such as the stomach sac, the body appears in the transparent central bulge of golden red or orange, which looks so delicious and seductive, like a freshly fried poached egg.
The main stages of life history are monomeric, jellyfish type, and their hydra type stage is underdeveloped. Larger body size, no limbic membrane; complex gastric circulation cavity, developed radiation tube, gastric filament of endodermal origin, there are spiny cells on the gastric filament; germ cells originate from the endoderm, the neural senses are more developed, and 8 sensory organs are formed in concentration.
Living in the ocean, jellyfish's weapons are harpoon-shaped tentacles, and when they touch prey, they shoot out venom from the tentacles that prick the cells and hunt their prey. Similar in appearance to boiled eggs, it is the most common jellyfish in the Mediterranean, and is also found in the Aegean and Adriatic Seas.
Ghost Shark – A shark that looks like a ghost
The ghost shark belongs to the all-headed suborder , silver mackerel , an aquatic creature named after a combination of animal traits. Silver mackerel is still called "living fossil". Silver mackerel is silvery grey or dark brown. It is mainly distributed in the tropical and temperate deep sea areas of the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, usually living on the bottom of the deep sea. Marine life is a distant relative of modern sharks, and ghost sharks separated from their closest relatives, the shark family, about 400 million years ago.
The ghost shark is black and purple in color and has a very peculiar appearance. Darker and more bizarre than all the sharks we know.
In order to find prey in the dark deep sea, ghost sharks have evolved sensitive receptors on their heads, and organs on their faces are responsible for catching changes in the electric fields of other animals and preying on them. Silver mackerel is a cartilaginous fish separated from the ancestors of the mackerel, also known as "living fossils", which have no bones on the body and are composed of cartilage.
The piggy octopus – really not the bastard of the Eight Precepts
The piglet octopus, scientifically known as "Helicocranchia pfefferi", has a distinguishing feature of a luminous organ under the eyes that produces orange light. Researchers have photographed rare piglet octopuses in the deep seas, which have a very similar appearance to human pigs: rounded bodies, curly "mane", and smiling faces. Since it usually lives in deep waters 100 meters under the sea, people rarely know its behavioral characteristics, but judging from its body size, it is a slow-moving octopus.
Atlantic Poseidon Sea Slugs – this proper magical creature
Divine sea slugs, Nudibranchia marine gastropod mollusks. The pinnate gills are bare, have two pairs of antennae, and are shellless. Feeds on sponges, anemones and corals. Usually bright colors. Some sea slugs leave food stingers for defense. Commonly known as the blue swallow or blue dragon, it is a blue, small pelagic winged manatee belly-footed mollusk of the family Neptune. Atlantic Sea God Sea Slugs, a single genus of the genus Poseidon gills. It is closely related to Glaucilla marginata and belongs to the family Haptorius gills. The Atlantic sea slug, which can be up to three centimeters in size and is mainly a floating species, often appears with currents along with the monk's hat jellyfish and silver coin jellyfish, which are mainly distributed in the tropical and pantropical waters of the Atlantic, Pacific and Indian Oceans.
The "Atlantic Poseidon" first appeared in an article published by European scholars in 1777. The reason why this sea slug is called "sea god" is because of its appearance like the greek god of the sea, Glaucus. In Greek mythology, the sea god Glaucus was immortalized by eating magical grasses, but his hands grew fins and his legs became tails.
In addition, the Atlantic sea god sea slugs have no sex, hermaphrodite, and the ventral side of the mating is close, and both sea slugs will spawn after mating. It is highly reproducible, mostly in the fall.
Red-lipped batfish (scientific name: Ogcocephalus darwini): known for its "flaming red lips". The body is up to 25 cm long, flattened, and the tail is stubby. The head is flat, broad and flattened. The snout is short, red, and has snout spines. Big eyes. When batfish mature, their dorsal fins become a spiny protrusion, which scientists speculate has the function of trapping prey. Specially, it has four "legs", has a large head, and "walks" on the seabed with pectoral fins. As an adult , its dorsal fin grows into a spine-like shape that resembles the horns of its head , projected to lure prey. Looks really special.
Due to its poor swimming ability, this peculiar fish is more likely to crawl on the bottom of the sea. Staple foods are shrimp, molluscs, small fish, crabs and worms. It lives in the waters off the Galapagos Islands.
Drip fish – the saddest fish in the world (probably because it's too ugly)
The drip fish, also known as the sad fish or the soft hidden thorn dubu fish, the bobo fish, because of the weeping face, is known as "the world's most sad expression" fish. There is a real reason for this seabed monster fish to be depressed: Scientists warn that the dripfish is threatened with extinction due to deep-sea fishing operations. The dripfish live on the coast of Australia and Tasmania, at depths of up to 1200 metres, and are rarely found by humans due to the difficulty of reaching the fish's habitat. Blobfish has a gelatinous body and can grow up to 12 inches (about 30.5 centimeters).
European-style barramundi - Pinocchio under the sea
Euclidean barramundi (scientific name: Mitsukurinidae owstoni), also known as The Euclidean Swordfish Shark, Euclidean Barramundi, Andyscher Shark, is the only species in the Family Cuneiformes (or The Family Sharkidae or The Sharkidae), which occurs in the deep sea where the sun does not shine, generally at depths of more than 200 meters. Because they are so rare, scientists know so little about them that they don't even know how long they can live and how long they will grow, but it is known that this rare shark will appear black in the water, making them almost invisible in the deep sea to avoid being preyed, and the long fish kiss has a sensor that can find prey in the sea that cannot be seen or heard, and the powerful double jaws are used to quickly prey on prey.
Sturgeon – I'm ugly, but I have lights and it's delicious
Ānkāng, commonly known as jiébā fish, haledge, sea toad, anglerfish, etc., generally live in tropical and subtropical deep-sea waters. Above the head of the trout there is a fleshy protrusion, shaped like a small lantern, which is formed by the gradual upward extension of the first dorsal fin of the trout. The reason why the small lantern emits light is because it has glandular cells in the lantern that can secrete photons, which emit light by slow chemical oxidation with oxygen under the catalysis of photonase. Many fish in the deep sea have phototropism, so the small lantern becomes a weapon for the trout to lure food.
Despite being ugly, the sturgeon is delicious
In the Kanto region of Japan, the sturgeon is known as the best in the world, and is known as "puffer fish in the west and sturgeon in the east". The flesh of the trout is as tight as a lobster, firm and not loose, the fiber is elastic, the taste is better than the general fish, and the collagen is very rich. Japanese people love to eat the cod pot, especially in winter. In addition to hot pot, the Japanese will also use salmon liver as sushi, and the liver of the trout is more known as the undersea foie gras, which is said to have the function of clearing heat and detoxifying the skin, and the general food method is steamed or sashimi.
Viper - Deep Sea Alien
Viper ( scientific name : Chauliodus ) is a small, warm-water and representative deep-sea luminous fish. Its body is slender and flattened, generally less than 350 mm long. Big head, big eyes, short kiss. The mouth is large and oblique. The lower jaw with a short whisker is larger than the upper jaw. A mouthful of long, outstretched fangs is very favorable. The dorsal fin is located above the back of the end of the pectoral fin, and the longer first fin is filamentous. There are light emitters on the side of the body, back, chest, abdomen and tail, which can be described as a "pearlescent treasure".
Vipers are one of the fierce predators in the depths of the ocean. Like the black giant mouth fish, they have large mouths and long fangs, their teeth are so long that they cannot fit in the mouth, and the lower teeth are bent backwards to touch the eyes, and scientists believe that their hunting method is to swim quickly to the prey and then nail the prey to their own teeth.
Swallowing eels – my mouth is bigger than Yao Chen's
Wide-throated fish, also known as swallowing eels, swallowing eels, pharyngeal sac eels, etc., are rare deep-sea fish, this eel has no movable upper jaw, and the huge jaw is loosely attached to the head, never closes the mouth, when it opens its mouth, it can easily swallow animals larger than it. It has no ribs and relies on a whip-like long tail to move. The end of the long tail can emit light and is thought to be used to attract prey.
Vampire Squid – The common ancestor of squid and octopus before they diverged
The vampire squid seems to have swum out of a midnight sci-fi movie, with two large fins on its body that look like two ears; it looks like glue, more like a jellyfish than a squid or squid. They have nail-like fangs on their "arms", which gives them the English name "vampire squid". There is a pair of "arms" that change into a slender body that can be extended, which can be stretched to twice the length of the animal's body, and they use this pair of freely retractable tentacles to cooperate with other shorter tentacles to catch prey. When in danger, the ghost grub flips all the tentacles over its body to form a protective net with nails.
Scientists speculate that it is the common ancestor of squid and octopus before they diverged.
Horned high-body golden-eyed seabream – deep-sea magic fish
The horned goldeye snapper, Anoplogaster cornuta (Valenciennes, 1833), gave it such a terrifying English name as "ogrefish". It inhabits particularly deep parts of the ocean, and although they most often inhabit 500-2000 meters, the middle of the abyss belt, as deep as 5000 meters, is their home, where the water pressure is frighteningly large and the temperature is close to freezing. There is a lack of food here, so these fish eat whatever they see, and most of their food may fall from the ocean a few layers above.
Frilled shark – deep-sea bodybuilding champion
The frilled shark (scientific name: Chlamydoselachus anguineus (Garman, 1884) is the most primitive species of shark, with no subspecies differentiation, known as "living fossils". The reason why there are more gill clefts than other sharks is probably because most of them inhabit the deep-sea environment, which has a relatively low oxygen concentration, so more gill fissures are needed for gas exchange. Despite its appearance, the shark has more than 300 sharp teeth in 25 rows, and is a fierce sea predator at first glance.
Sea Hare – Hermaphrodite little cutie
The sea hare is not a rabbit, but a type of snail, belonging to the shellfish living in the shallow sea, is a collective term for the marine gastropods of the sea hare family, named because of the two pairs of antennae on its head protruding like rabbit ears. It is a special member of the crustacean mollusk family. Their shells have degenerated into inner shells. On the back there is a transparent thin shell skin, which is generally white with a pearly luster. Sea hares are hermaphrodite creatures that inhabit the seabed and are bare-chested, connected by an oviparous groove between the two reproductive foramen of the male and female.
Pacific Bucket Eye Fish – A fish with a transparent head
The Pacific Barreleye was first discovered by humans in 1939 and is extremely difficult to spot because of the damage to the body of this unusual deep-sea fish when it is in shallow waters. In 2009, researchers at the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute (MBARI) first observed the condition of this transparent-headed Pacific barrel-eye fish using a remotely controlled camera. The researchers were amazed: the bucket-eyed fish's eyes kept turning in a transparent, liquid-filled head. On the face, the face of the barrel-eyed fish looks normal, but the "eyes" are actually its real "nostrils", and the part of the emerald green structure of the head is its eyes. Scientists say the bucket-eyed fish's eyes allow it to look directly forward or through its head in order to search for the faint outline of the prey's head, making it very adaptable to survive in the dark deep-sea environment.
The monk's hat jellyfish can predict storms. It has a floating sac with long tentacles hanging underneath. There is a special gland inside the sac that emits carbon dioxide, causing it to expand. Jellyfish, which means "bubble" in Greek, is able to rise and decrease with the help of this "bubble", causing the jellyfish to float to a place where there is food, or away from predators. When it is too late to escape, it will automatically release its gas and sink to the bottom of the water; when a storm is coming, it can quickly leave the coast. Monk's jellyfish are found in the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans, from the coast of California to the sea around Australia, from the east coast of the United States to the English Channel and even the Mediterranean Sea.
Sea Butterfly – a winged marine snail
Sea butterflies are marine snails that adapt to the environment near the poles, and their official name is the wing-foot snail. Although it is called snails, in fact, some of them have no shell, and some of them have shells, but the shells are thin and transparent. Sea butterflies have wing-like flaps that are actually their lateral feet. They swim with these two wing-like flaps. Sea butterflies are actually very small, generally within 1 centimeter.
Hexagonal dragon fish – really like a dragon
Salamander family, genus Axoruptera. No frontal squamous arc, biconcave vertebral body. The lateral costostral grooves are pronounced. Most adult species are predominantly land-dwelling, burrowing in earthen caves. There are about 30 kinds of fertilization in the body. It is widely distributed, reaching southeastern Alaska in the north and highlands of Mexico in the south. Spawning in ponds or streams during early spring breeding, and some species lay their eggs on land in the autumn. When winter rain comes, the larvae enter the water to live. The egg attaches to a twig or other object. Female salamanders lay about 100 to 300 eggs, divided into several clusters of eggs, each group averages about 16 grains, the eggs of the animal are extremely black and brown, about 30 to 45 days of hatching, the larvae are about 12 mm long, with balanced branches.
The genus Apatosaurus has a broad head, small eyes, a large tongue, and only the sides are free. The teeth of the plough bone are mostly transverse, some are far apart, and some are "M" shaped. It is widespread, reaching southeastern Alaska in the north and highlands of Mexico in the south.
Mesa, the Mexican blunt-mouthed salamander, is naturally sexually mature, while morphologically incomplete metamorphosis, belonging to the child's body type; only occasionally, it is completed under the induction of thyroid hormones. The tabby blunt-mouthed salamander is a child in the high mountains of the west; in the eastern lowlands, it can complete the metamorphosis in a few months. Low temperatures and many other factors can inhibit it from completing metamorphosis. Spotted salamander and Mexican salamander can live up to 25 years.
Cave Salamander - I am more like a dragon than upstairs, and I can report to the emperor in ancient China
The cave salamander ( also known as the blind salamander , scientific name : Proteus anguinus ) is an amphibian. Due to its grey and pink body, local inhabitants of Slovenia and Croatia refer to them as "mermaids". [1]
It inhabits the underground veins of limestone caves in the Dinaric Alps and spreads from the Isonzo River basin near Trieste, Italy, through southern Slovenia, southwestern Croatia and as far as Hesegovina. This species is also the only species in the genus Cave Salamander.
In addition, it is the only burrowing chordate in Europe, and the old currency of Slovenia has a pattern of a salamander.
Flying fish - the little Kunpeng is me
The Atheriniformes family of about 40 species of marine fish is collectively known as the "flying fish", so it is called flying fish. But the flying fish is not flying, it feels like it is flapping the wing-like fins, it is actually just gliding. Flying fish look strange, and the pectoral fin is particularly developed, like the wings of birds. With its streamlined and graceful body shape, flying fish can move at high speeds in the sea at a speed of 10 meters per second. It can jump more than ten meters above the water, the maximum time it stays in the air is more than 40 seconds, and the longest distance it can fly is more than 400 meters.
Flying fish are fish that live in the upper layers of the ocean and are the object of predation by a variety of fierce fish. Flying fish do not jump out of the water easily, and they only show this ability when they are attacked by enemies or stimulated by the vibration of the ship's engine.
