Researchers confirmed it through measurements, CT scans, and #DNA, and found its scruffy look likely mimics floating #algae for #camouflage.

Deepwater discoveries: #scientists find more than 110 new #fish and #invertebrate species in the #CoralSea
Brittlestars, sea anemones and a catshark among new-to-science species collected during expedition off the Queensland coast
The species were found in waters between 200 metres and 3km deep in the Coral Sea marine park, #Australia’s largest #marineprotectedarea, which spans nearly 1m sq km to the east of the #GreatBarrierReef.
