While looking a lot like an adult of the more common species Ebinania vermiculata, this specimen was examined and identified as the rare Psychrolutes macrocephalus by the Tokai University. This is the only specimen of its kind known in captivity.
Wow! Now that's an animal you don't see every day. Or ever...

You're just crossing off every single ZC bucket list fish of the list with this Japan trip, aren't you?
