Biologists find many unknown species when looking at the bottom of the sea. An example of this is the project Census of Marine Zooplankton. Twenty-eight marine biologists from the United States embarked on the capture of a zooplankton five kilometers deep. Accordingly, about 500 species were collected, analyzed and classified. The analysis was done, among other things, with a portable DNA reader. Thus, they could know on board whether each species was known or not.
In the image are some of the species that collected: a) a tiny anemone; b) a Hippopopopopopodius shaped like a bell; c) a fish of the new genus Idiacanthus; d) a jelly Pegantha; e) a tenoforo; and f) a tunic.
