Two different species of #amphipods coexisting atop the bell of a #jellyfish, seemingly unbothered by each other’s presence. The larger is an #Oxycephalus, while the smaller is a #Hyperiid. Together, the drift through the open-ocean currents on their weaponized “life raft”.

Invasion of the amphipods! Whereas it’s common to see 1-2, this jellyfish has been inundated with hyperiid amphipods . #jellyfish #🪼 #amphipod #hyperiid #blackwater #blackwaterdiving #blackwaterphotography #chrisgug #gug #gugunderwater #scuba #scubadiving #underwater #ocean

This #deep-sea crustacean boasts two sets of #compoundeyes (2x that of bees). Other #hyperiid #amphipods boast 360º vision & mirrors that amplify dim light–helpful for navigating the dim #OceanTwilightZone! #WeirdWednesday https://t.co/hD43PmeU6t
