“You can have high levels of coral cover—up to 50 or 60 per cent … but coral cover is not the be-all-and-end-all. There is so much more we need to know to assess the status of the reef.” — A/Prof Zoe Richards #ScienceJourney

This is a deep-sea tomopterid worm. Many are wholly transparent and evoke swimming chandeliers, but this one has a deep red body, likely to hide itself from the bioluminescent searchlights of predators. As always, feel free to use this image as you like.

This is a close-up of the “face” of Vampyroteuthis infernalis, the only species in its order. It is a deep-sea cephalopod that is nearly always found in oxygen minimum zones — areas of the deep-sea that have low oxygen concentrations and thus can be be refugees from predation.
