EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph from the Challenger expedition, taken in 1874 off the coast of South Australia, showcases a collection of Coryphaenoides armatus, commonly known as the abyssal grenadier or rattail, preserved in specimen jars. The Challenger expedition, led by British scientist HMS Challenger, was an unprecedented 1872-1876 voyage of discovery and exploration that circumnavigated the globe, making significant advancements in marine science. The abyssal grenadier is a bony fish belonging to the Actinopterygii, or ray-finned fish, and the Gadiformes, or gadid fishes. This deep-sea dwelling species is a member of the Macrouridae family, also known as rattails, and is characterized by its long, slender body and large, protruding eyes. These adaptations enable the grenadier to thrive in the dark, cold depths of the ocean, where sunlight does not penetrate. The abyssal grenadier is native to the Australasian region and is an essential component of the deep-sea ecosystem. Its discovery during the Challenger expedition was a groundbreaking moment in the understanding of the diverse and complex marine life inhabiting the deep ocean. The specimens in this photograph are a testament to the remarkable achievements of the Challenger expedition, which paved the way for further research and exploration of the world's oceans.
