"Deepest Fish Ever Recorded Filmed Near Japan During Expedition"

A joint Australian-Japanese scientific expedition has caught and filmed snailfish more than 5 miles below the ocean's surface in the Iza-Ogasawara Trench, south of Japan. The Pseudoliparis belyaevi species of snailfish are the first to be caught below 26,000 feet. The expedition's chief scientist, Alan Jamieson, said the catch and filming took place during a two-month voyage by a team from the University of Western Australia and the Tokyo University of Marine Science.
