In the Tasman Sea fish caught chetyrehglazogo Bashny.Net

incredible creatures caught scientists during a research project in the Tasman Sea. Discovered at a depth of about 1000 meters the fish has a pair of extra eyes, allowing her to see 360 ​​° around itself.
Despite the fact that this creature looks like an alien from outer space, in fact - is chetyrehglazogo fish that lives in the depths of the oceans of our planet. The fish has an extra pair of eyes, which allows her to see 360 ​​° around itself, although there dwells deep beneath the ocean surface in almost pitch tme.

The scientist who made the discovery, said that extra pair of eyes formed to fish could detect prey, predators and potential partners. Inhabits this unusual creature at a depth of between 800 and 1000 meters. Fish has two main cylindrical eyes looking up to be able to see prey or predators on the background light coming from the upper layers of water. It also has a second set of eyes of silver on each side of the head, which have the lens and retina. That they give the fish is extremely unusual appearance. German scientists who have examined how the fish uses two pairs of eyes, argue that additional organs of vision represents a previously unknown type of eyes. Her silvery "extra" pair of eyes react to bioluminescent flashes created deep creatures, and allows you to see what is happening around, writes Mail Online. Light coming from the bottom, the second focuses on the "retina", as in a distorting mirror composed of many layers of small reflective plates made of guanine crystals, which significantly increases the field of view ryby.

The study results were quite unexpected, because the eye reflectors are usually found only in invertebrates such as molluscs and crustacea. Nevertheless deep creature also uses a combination of reflective and refractive lenses in their eyes. The discovery made by Professor Hans-Joachim Wagner from the University of Tübingen in Baden-Württemberg, Germany.
