  1. Not seeing much #mesopelagic #fish action here yet, so I thought I'd get the #oceantwilightzone party started here on Mastdon.

    This beautiful fish is a #dragonfish (Stomias boa), a #mesopelagic predator found across the #OTZ of deep ocean basins. Typically caught between 400-600 m depth, this immaculate specimen hitched a ride to the surface, ensnared by a single tooth, on the outer mesh of #CCGSAmundsen midwater trawl. August 2019, Labrador Sea.
