That critter somehow reminds me of Jimmy Durante. I can almost hear it yell "Umbriago!" |

I hate it when I get a parasitic copepod on my lip. |

An image search for "Psychrolutes" on yahoo gives about a dozen results. Looks real enough. |

Alas, a face only a mother could love.

That's a cool looking parasitic copepod, but did you get a load of that weird fish that's stuck to it? |

Doesn't anyone read the bloody captions on these things?
Mind you, the "nose" gives the thing a human appearance, so that is worth a laugh. And we do catch species like this here in our waters; Pretty nasty to eat though, fatty as anything. The bloating is not all due to pressure changes. |
