This chimaera was observed at around 1,850 meters (6,070 feet) depth during a dive to explore an unnamed seamount within Phoenix Islands Protected Area as part of the Discovering the Deep: Exploring Remote Pacific Marine Protected Areas expedition. These fish are distant relatives of sharks and have skeletons made out of cartilage.
They are also commonly known as ghost fish. BOO!
