You don't need a back bone to be completely amazing. Check out the splendid diversity of these invertebrates! #VisitorPicture by 📷: @charismatic_minifauna #regram #invertebrates #octopus #turbansnail #combjelly #cuttlefish #awesomeoceananimals #newenglandaquarium #boston #massachusetts (at New England Aquarium)

Another Unique Resident Of The Deep Ocean - A Ctenophore Called Beroe Forskalii *********************************************** This is a #repost from @mbari_news via @PhotoAroundApp This animal, beautiful and serene-looking, is actually a fierce deep-sea predator (though it is only a few inches long). It is a ctenophore called Beroe forskalii. Ctenophores are gelatinous animals that swim by waving tiny hair-like projections called "ctenes." Beroe forskalii also has tiny hairs that act like "teeth" that help it grab onto its prey. When Beroe bumps into another jelly, it grabs on using these teeth, opens its mouth (at left) really wide, and tries to swallow its prey whole.⠀ ⠀ #combjelly #combjellies #ctenophore #beroe #DEEPC #bioluminescence #deepsea #deepseaadaptations #ROV #underwatervideo #MBARI #gelata #jellywatch #midwater #pelagic #jellies #mesopelagic #bathypelagic #combrows #sealife #ocean #oceanlife #marinebiology #deepsealife #DeepOceanLife
