#Biofluorescence: Unseen world of the #Celtic #rainforest revealed by UV
By Paul Pigott, February 17, 2024
"An eerie glow has been emanating from #Wales' #forests and #rockpools for the country's annual dark skies week.
"David Atthowe, a nature guide from Norwich, was invited to shine his ultraviolet (UV) torches on some of the best nature spots in Pembrokeshire and Monmouthshire.
"His photos of temperate rain forest in Wales reveal shapes, structures and colours that rival a coral reef.
"'It is hidden from our human senses, waiting to be discovered,' he said."

When I first saw this prawn (Palaemon sp.) in the rockpools last year, I though I’d stumbled on a new species! But alas no. This poor chap is infected with a fungus Inodosporus octosporus, which has caused his insides to turn a milky white. The common name of this infection is, in fact, milk disease!

The velvet swimming crab aka devils crab (Necora puber) has a bit of a rep. I don’t think the devil bit in the name helps! Admittedly, they do seem a little aggressive when you come across them! I’m always impressed with their ‘I’m bigger than you!’ attitude 😍

A common brittlestar (Ophiothrix fragile). Unlike starfish, a brittlestar’s arms don’t have organs in them, and are primarily used for locomotion. To be a total hypocrite, I wouldn’t recommend handling brittlestars as their arms break very easily. These were held briefly for identification and a video for my records and then gently placed back.

Neptune's necklace in rock pools and on rocky shorelines. There are other crustaceans.
Limpets - They have an oval shaped shell, usually with a peak near the centre. During high tide they move about and graze on algae returning to the same place when the tide falls and sealing themselves tightly against the rock to conserve moisture.

Pennant’s swimming crab (Portumnus latipes). Something I don’t see very often in the intertidal, like, this is it, just the once. When you regularly explore rocky shores, you start to notice the subtle differences between species, and it’s always exciting to see something new!

Common hermit crabs (Pagurus bernhardus) always seem to be hungry. These guys are working hard to pluck organic matter from the water to consume. Link to YouTube video below ⬇️

I was so spoilt this year with stalked jellyfish. The only species I’ve seen here in North Norfolk is this one, Calvadosia campanulata. It definitely paid off snorkelling as much as I could over summer and autumn!

Three years ago, if you’d asked me to name some animals found in rockpools, I sure as heck wouldn’t have mentioned sea squirts. Now, they’re one of my favourite animals and at West Runton, there’s at least 10 different species! This one is Sidnyum turbinatum.
