Description
Our expedition took us to unexplored waters south of the
Philippine Islands, in search of the strange, and possibly unknown, fishes,
jellyfishes, squids, and shrimps that live in the dark, deep waters of the
Celebes Sea. Surrounded by much shallower ocean waters, the Celebes plunges to
over 5,000 meters (m), and in these waters there may well be species that have
evolved in isolation from other surrounding waters, waiting to be discovered
with modern exploration tools.
