Deepsea Tripod Fish
The Ipnopidae (deepsea tripod fishes) are a family of fishes in the order Aulopiformes. They are small, slender fishes, with maximum length ranging from about . They are found in temperate and tropical deep waters of the Atlantic, Indian, and Pacific Oceans. Abiotic factors, such as depth, temperature, dissolved oxygen concentration, pressure, and carbon concentration can all impact their distribution. A number of species, especially in the genus ''Bathypterois'', have elongated pectoral and pelvic fins. In the case of the tripodfish, ''Bathypterois grallator'', these fins are three times as long as the body — up to a meter in length — and are used for standing on the sea floor. Ipnopids either have tiny eyes, or very large eyes that lack any lens A lens is a transmissive optical device that focuses or disperses a light beam by means of refraction. A simple lens consists of a single piece of transparent material, while a compound lens consists of several simple len ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
