When it comes to #Halloween, deep-sea fish don’t mess around! Take, for example, this chimaera, at roughly 50 centimeters (20 inches), was seen during the 2019 Southeastern U.S. Deep-sea Exploration. Although the lines and dots on its face give it a bit of a “stitched together” appearance (ala Halloween!), they actually serve important purposes. The lateral lines running across this chimaera are mechano-receptors that detect pressure waves (just like ears). The dotted-looking lines on the fronta

Wait to see the reflective eyes! Throwback to when a deep-sea submersible spotted a chimaera, aka a ghost shark, drifting in the waters of the Pacific Remote Islands Marine National Monument. Chimaera use their pectoral fins like wings to seemingly fly through the ocean and have a reflective layer of cells behind their eyes that helps with vision in the dark waters they inhabit. Chimaera skeletons are composed of cartilage, just like sharks, but they “genetically diverged from their shark relati

The chimaera, also called a “ghost shark”, is a relic from the age of dinosaurs and reveals how life can adapt to the extreme pressure and darkness of the deep. Don’t get confused by the nickname though. Chimaeras branched off from rays and sharks over 400 millions ago. This ancient species is not technically a shark, even though there are similarities, like having a cartilage skeleton. By studying species like this, OceanX uncover clues about evolution, resilience, and the ocean’s hidden ecosys

This video of a chimaera was shot in Indonesian waters in 2010, during the Indonesia-USA Deep-Sea Exploration of the Sangihe Talaud Region. Chimaeras are most closely related to sharks, although their evolutionary lineage branched off from sharks nearly 400 million years ago, and they have remained an isolated group ever since. Like sharks, chimaeras are cartilaginous and have no real bones. The lateral lines running across this chimaera are mechano-receptors that detect pressure waves (just lik

Deep Ocean World on Instagram: "👻🦈 Chimaera (Ghost Shark) 👻Not a true shark—chimaeras are closer relatives of sharks & rays and have existed for ~400 million years. They live in the deep sea (often 200–2,000+ m), so they’re built for darkness with big, light-sensitive eyes 👀 Instead of sharp, replaceable teeth, they have hard tooth plates for crushing shells and crustaceans 💥 Some species carry a venomous dorsal spine for defense 🦂 Males have special claspers and a head “tenaculum” to grip
