Hammer-time! I love finding amazing cleared and stained specimens in the lab. This is an embryonic Bonnethead Shark (Sphyrna tiburo) - prepared by Steven Byrum. This is a small hammerhead species with the smallest cephalofoil or "hammer" head, and it is beautiful! 🔨🦈

Rice Coral egg/sperm bundle breaking up into individual egg and sperm. The cloudiness around the bundle is sperm, and the larger circles are eggs. You can even see the algal symbionts (tiny brown dots) in the eggs! Video captured by CRL Research Assistant Elena Mujica

@thomasmesaglio That's it! Thank you for solving that mystery 🙏🐠 We've had a couple of big swells recently, and I've found a number of "interesting" juvenile fishes wash up.

[Miranda Spencer Altice @MirandaSAltice]

I'm at a loss... what fish is this? Found on Sharpe's Beach near Lennox Head NSW.
