Friday Squid Blogging: New Species of Squid
A photo of the still unnamed species:
A 0.2-inch-long (0.5-centimeter-long) larval squid is seen through a microscope's lens in this handout image released October 16, 2007, by WHOI.The young squid was caught within 328 feet (100 meters) of the surface of the Celebes Sea, an unusual basin that lies between the southern Philippines and Malaysia.

You'd need quite a few of these little fellas in the deep fryer to satisfy even a meager hunger ...

Other than it's not Long Island Sound, what's so unusual about the Celebes Sea?
(Bruce, I know it's not your comment, but the only unusual thing is that it is there; not here. However there are more places there than here, so maybe here is the unusual one? Simple.)

The “especially deep water surrounded by shallower ocean��? is an unusual feature, I take it. Who knows what all live down there. Perhaps for some species, what evolves in the Celebes Sea stays in the Celebes Sea.

It even looks a little isolated...

(the Celebes Sea is the deeper area in the middle, roughly 500km on a side, surrounded by shallower shelves)
I would have described it as an isolated island of deep ocean.

Am I missing something? I'm not quite sure what this is about Friday Squid Blogging? Are squids the new cure-all security solution?
