海洋研究開発機構の研究グループは、２０１６年に静岡県の駿河湾で、大きな魚を４匹とりました
In 2016, the research group of Japan Agency for Marine-Earth Science and Technology caught four large fish in Suruga Bay, Shizuoka Prefecture.
The fish was in the deep sea over 2000m deep
4 animals were over 1m in length
The largest fish weighed about 1m30cm and weighed 25kg.
Examining the shape and DNA of the fish revealed that it was a new species of ”Alepocephalidae” in the deep sea.
The research group named this fish ”Yokozuna sardine”
「ヨコヅナイワシ」は、ほかの魚に食べられることがなくて、駿河湾の深い海にいる魚などの関係の中で、いちばん上の魚だということもわかりました
It was also found that ”Yokozuna sardine” is the highest fish in relation to fish in the deep sea of Suruga Bay, which is not eaten by other fish.
The research group also took a video of ”Yokozuna sardines” swimming slowly near the bottom of the deep sea.
