The Deep: The Extraordinary Creatures of the Abyss

Claire Nouvian, The Deep, University of Chicago Press [200x150, 4.4K][via TONMO]

The companion website to Claire Nouvian’s book has a gallery of deep sea critters that you can glance through. Note especially the Dumbo octopus (Grimpoteuthis sp.), Glowing sucker octopus (Stauroteuthis syrtensis), Telescope octopus (Amphitretus pelagicus) and an egg-bearing Black-eyed squid (Gonatus onyx). All very well photographed and tentacley. Splash page includes ethereal, mysterious music too so you know you are underwater.

    I love Deep sea creatures. I specially enjoy studying the deep sea jellys and the giant jelly.
