A new species of 'ghost shark' has been identified in the waters off New Zealand. This elusive deep-sea fish, which is closely related to sharks and rays, is notoriously difficult to observe and study due to its remote habitat. The discovery adds to the growing knowledge of these fascinating creatures, which are known for their unique features and adaptations to life in the depths of the ocean. Researchers are excited about the potential insights this new species may provide into the biodiversity of deep-sea ecosystems.
