Scientists Photograph Hundreds of Never-Before-Seen Deep Sea Species

Scientists have photographed more than 100 never-before-seen species that were discovered during a deep-sea expedition.

The discoveries come from an international group of scientists from the Schmidt Ocean Institute expedition who explored underwater mountain ranges, also known as seamounts, in the southeast Pacific, off the coast of Chile this year.

A Chaunax (a genus of bony fish in the sea toad family Chaunacidae) is seen at a depth of 4,553 feet (1388 meters)
