Exceptionnel dans les chaluts à turbots à 1170 mètres de profondeur.
My first Corymorpha observation!
collected off Stora Skorpa with triangular dredge
I've seen an influx of these over the last week in March/first week in April around Nanaimo. I'm super curious what they are. Some kind of egg? Jelly? They're about the size of a dime.
Caught by light trap.

Spotted sticking out of the sand and thought it was dead but started moving around while i was taking photos
Either G. macrocephalus or G. chalcogrammus.
It was neat to see them with eggs
