This is the chirostylid crab Eumunida picta from the deep sea floor of the Gulf of Mexico. The crazy thing about crabs of this group is that some have photoreceptors in their eyes that are sensitive to UV light, even though there is no visible UV light at that depth.
This looks like a typical mussel but is actually a deep-sea version called Bathymodiolus childressi. These are found in methane-seep regions of the sea floor and this one was found at the brine pool I mentioned earlier. It is 6” long and harbors bacteria that eat methane.
This is the slit shell Peretrochus. The slit shells are characterized by the long slit in the shell that is where their exhaling “breath” goes out. A very old group that goes back to the Cambrian and has many fossils in the Paleozoic, these days it is only found in the deep sea
This is the rhopalonematid medusa Colobonema sericeum, sadly missing its tentacles. I mostly photographed this animal because of the beautiful iridescence in its bell, but they’re are also neat because they do all their development in water instead of some on the sea floor.
This is Eustomias jimcraddocki, named after Jim Craddock, who I knew when I was at Woods Hole. Like the other Eustomias I showed a couple months ago, it has an elaborate bioluminescent lure below its chin that is species specific in shape and may allow species identification.
This is a side-view of the hyperiid amphipod Phronima that highlights its impressive claws and the fact that it has two pairs of eyes. It also shows its pigmentation, which is interesting because the animal goes between clear and quite brown for reasons I don't understand.
This is Paraphronima gracilis, which may be the weirdest hyperiid amphipod of them all, in that it has 24 retinas in two rows of 12. Based on the transparent light guides between the retinas and the lenses, it seems that the animal is always looking up. It is small but strange.
This is the carid Thor amboinensis, also called both the squat shrimp and the sexy shrimp. It's relatively shallow on reefs in a number of ocean basins and is only about one cm long. What it lacks in size though, it more than makes up for in its beautiful markings.
This jelly is the rhopalonematid Pantachogon, which I realize is a serious mouthful for 7:30 in the morning. I took this picture because the medusa is making color in two different ways: 1) by the orange pigment in its gonads and 2) by blue and green iridescence in its muscles.
This is the nudibranch Glaucus that crawls on the underside of the ocean surface (like the Upside-Down) and concentrates stinging cells from siphonophores in its body as a defense. The appendages are pulled in — not sure if this is due to condition or being a different species.
I know nothing about this shrimp except that I love the way it looks. It came up in a mid-water trawl in the Gulf of Mexico. I don’t know if it’s truly oceanic or got pulled away from some reef. The long appendages, which can be used to slow sinking, suggest maybe oceanic?
This is Phrosina semilunata, yet another cool hyperiid amphipod with yet another cool set of large eyes. These animals seem to be eye factories, making all sort of types that often are used to find their nearly transparent host jellies that they parasitize.
This semi-abstract photo is the webbed arm of Vampyroteuthis, called the vampire "squid" but actually its own group within the cephalopods. When threatened, they curl their arms inside-out around themselves in what has been called a "pineapple" posture.
I don’t know what this shrimp is, but from the blue coloration, one can usually assume it’s found near the surface of oceanic waters. Most animals in the open ocean have colors based on depth, ranging from whole-body blue at the surface to whole-body red or black at great depth.
This is the calycophoran siphonophore Vogtia, which is a close relative of Hippopodius, which I showed earlier. I’ve always loved siphonophores. Many of them look like exquisite glass sculptures. This one almost looks like a Klein bottle in how it folds into itself.
This is an unidentified pyrosome, a colonial sister taxon to the salps, which are themselves related to the sea squirts we see on dock pilings. The name means “fire body” due to their long-lasting bioluminescence when touched. Some pyrosomes can get impressively large.
One of the many proposed uses of bioluminescence in the deep sea is to label a possible predator and thus make them more vulnerable to predation themselves. This can be done using an excretion of sticky bioluminescent mucus, as seen by this Venus fly trap anemone (Actinoscyphia)
This is the top snail Calliostoma benedicti. Though many animals in the deep sea look quite different from their shallow water relatives — and even odd to our eyes — some look surprisingly normal, like we could have picked them up on the beach. This was found at about 1000 feet.

A more muted light display than the isidid coral coral is that from this Chrysogorigia from the same site and expedition. We noticed that many of these highly branching corals had crustaceans and ophiuroids hanging in their branches, presumably to feed on plankton passing by.

Real talk: I could not have spent my academic career thus far with better people. Thank you @sonkelab for whatever magic it is you did to bring this crazy group of people together
.@LoriSchweikert: Making sense of the enormous diversity of fish visual sensitivities. Rod lambda max predicted by depth and habitat. Chromacy driven by depth. Phylogenetic history very important as well. Great talk! #SICB2019 #colsci
.@laura_bagge gave a fascinating talk on transparency in anemone shrimp- these tiny animals are marvels of evolutionary engineering (reduced surface reflectance and internal scattering through clever ultrastructures). Cool! @sonkelab at #SICB2019
My talk is tomorrow! Come by to learn about my latest work with the sea urchins. Completely unbiased spoiler alert: they’re cute. #SICB2019
I'm stoked for SICB 2019!! This year I worked with a dream team to explore variation in fish vision. Make sure to catch the talk, Saturday at 10:30am in room 25. @sonkelab @EleanorCaves @SICBtweets
Going to #SICB2019? Come check out my talk on blue-green categorical perception by zebra finches. Spoilers: just like humans, categorization is less clear cut for blue-green than red-orange! Friday, Jan 4 @ 11:45 in Room 21! work w/ @patrick_a_green @SteveNowickiDU @sonkelab
