Marine reptiles (30 photos)

As we promised you, and this week will be a very unusual collection. Though the selection is called "marine reptiles," but we will focus on the most bizarre deep-sea creatures. Many of these creatures have been discovered only in the 20th century, as live at great depths. We already went "horror waters", but there is a strange sea creatures were not signed, and many thought it was Photoshop. No, just the amazing creations of nature.
