Alright, my pinned tweet didn't have the right video & idk how I didn't know, but this is the correct collection clip of a faceless cusk eel around 4300m by @SchmidtOcean ROV pilots in 2020 & is my fave collection ever. The skill is amazing. Dive 341 #NingalooCanyons

Someone made this sticker specifically for me of SOI's ROV SuBastian & yep, that's a Stygiomedusa too! That's gonna look awesome with the squid stickers I got from @invertebabe! (Sorry, not available to buy) The white part is transparent when applied

Here's video clips of the animal and collection
Spot her long illicium (the "fishing rod" formed by the first ray of the dorsal fin), about 1.5 times her body length with a #bioluminescent white lure at the end. Further analysis will determine if this fish is one of 3 rarely seen or sampled species or a new species altogether!

Sending love to Mike and his family 😢🫂.
Sending the best and warmest of wishes for a quick and safe recovery for legendary squid biologist powerhouse Mike Vecchione. There are very few people that are at the top of the Cephalopod ladder, but he definitely is. Get well soon Mike!!.

That fish is actually a "congrio dorado" Genypterus blacodes, not what I said.

Got a suggestion that this is the oral arms of a Scyphomedusa. Poor thing got whacked in half.
