Wow



PARIS -- This photo released by the IFREMER (French Research Institute for Exploitation of the Sea) shows a new crustacean called "Kiwa hirsuta". The eyeless shellfish, about 15cm long, was discovered in March 2005 during a diving mission led by American researcher Robert Vrijenhoek, of the MBARI Institute, in hydrothermal vents of the Pacific Antartic Ridge, south of Easter Island.
