EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of marine history, the Rattail fish specimen C016 / 5671. Preserved in a glass jar, this particular specimen was collected during The Voyage of H. M. S. Challenger (1872-1876), an expedition funded by the British Government to unravel scientific mysteries. Dating back to 1874, this extraordinary find hails from the waters south of Australia. Against a pristine white background, this image beautifully captures the intricate details and unique features of this Australian fauna representative. With its elongated body and distinct rattail-like appendage, it belongs to the Coryphaenoides sp. , commonly known as grenadier or rattail fish. As an invaluable addition to zoological archives, this preserved aquatic marvel sheds light on the diverse biodiversity found beneath our oceans' depths. Classified under actinopterygii and osteichthyes categories as bony ray-finned fish, it falls within the gadiform order specifically known as macrouridae nematonurus. Displayed in a spirit jar for preservation purposes at London's esteemed Natural History Museum, this photograph serves as a testament to both scientific exploration and meticulous documentation that has been carried out over centuries. It is through such specimens that we continue expanding our knowledge about wildlife and unlocking nature's secrets.
