Tasselled Anglerfish (Rhycherus filamentosus)Observer
leonie_rennieDescription
Tasselled anglerfish Rhycherus filamentosus 17 cm in length.
Fish seems to be west of its known range, according to Gomon et al. (2008, p.372). It has a damaged belly and lost a lot of skin, but has likely been rolled around in sand and seaweed before being washed up a steep slope. ID of R. filamentosus rather than R. gloveri based on shape of esca, according to diagram of esca distinguishing the species on p. 372. Fin ray count D=1,1,1, 12; A=7; C=9; P=11 ; V= 5
