Our oceans are full of wonderful and extraordinary life-forms.

Scientists have re-discovered a very unusual faceless fish that has no eyes or a visible nose and it’s mouth is underneath.


It was last seen in 1873 and has now been found 4km below sea level in waters south of Sydney, Australia.


Researchers on “The Investigator”, a ship that is currently out on a scientific voyage are studying parts of the ocean never explored before. To their big surprise and joy they found several new species and the unusual faceless fish, which has only been recorded once before by the pioneering scientific crew of HMS Challenger off Papua New Guinea in 1873.
