JManrow Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 A new species of seahorse has been discovered in a region of the western part of the North Atlantic Ocean, which is bounded by points in Bermuda, Florida and Puerto Rico, which is often referred to as the Bermuda Triangle. A small colony has been discovered, and has been given the name Hippocampus aprilfooleri. This species The new discovery is very "dragon-like" in appearance, and should not be confused with other "sea dragons" of the genera Phycodurus and Phyllopteryx. Pictured are juvenile and adult specimens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flashy Fins Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Given how much more attractive the juvenile stage is, I predict an opportunity for stores to offer package deals of these seahorses along with growth stunting additive Marine Depot is offering.
