Imagem de Hydrolagus affinis (de Brito Capello 1868)
Descrição:
Description: a deep-water chimera. The species is Hydrolagus affinis, the Smalleyed rabbitfish. This is a reasonably common deep-water species that lives in the Northern Atlantic at depths of 300-3000m. It is in the same class as the sharks. It was described in 1868. Unfortunately for this fish it has a high infection rate from various parasites (nine have been recorded). The most visible is a copepod (crustacean) parasite, Lernaeopodina longibrachia, that attaches to the cornea. This parasite infects around 80% of individuals.
