Daily fish fact #549
Ninja lanternshark!
It can faintly glow blue, blending into the small amount of light available at the depths they live in! This makes them unnoticeable to their prey, shrimp and small fish. Their scientific name, Etmopterus benchleyi, has a reference to Peter Benchley, who wrote the novel Jaws!

Ninja Lanternshark - WTF fun facts
Daily fish fact #664
Ninja lanternshark!
These sharks have photophores — tiny bioluminescent organs appearing as dots — which are thought to act as lures or aid them in camouflaging themselves among the tiny bit of light visible in the deep sea, hiding them from predators and prey alike. However, peculiarly the photophores of the ninja lanternshark seem to be focused on the head instead of the belly, like with other lanternsharks!
