The life of mysterious creatures at the bottom of the ocean is always a fascinating topic that not only attracts many scientists but also photographers. And one of the passionate photographers exploring ocean creatures is Susan Middleton.

She brought people closer to the ocean world through the book 'Spineless' ( Invertebrate Organism) - a book with pictures and information about the lives of more than 250 species of invertebrate marine life. .

Take a look at some of the sea creatures present in the book below to feel the exotic beauty emanating from them.

The red eyes of Medusa

Medusa red-eyed jellyfish (scientific name: Polyorchis penicillatus) is one of the most beautiful jellyfish of the Pacific coast due to the attraction of red eye spots around the tentacles.

Nudibranch sea slug

Sea slugs have a short life span - no more than 4 months.

The striking feature of this tropical marine species is the eye-catching multicolored skin, visible when its shells are lost during adulthood. Nudibranch is also very clever in using colorful body colors to camouflage enemies.

Worms flatter orange rings

With a flat body, this flatworm does not have a circulatory system but simply lets oxygen penetrate directly into the body through tissues without the need for respiration.

More specifically, sea-worms have also owned two male sexual organs and three to five female reproductive organs. This makes them one of the most bisexual species in the sea.

Sea anemone

The name of this boneless sea creature comes from the form of terrestrial anemone flower, but it actually bears the characteristics of a half-plant, half-animal, nicknamed 'marine predator'. .

When you are under the ocean, you will find it very difficult to detect this species because they are capable of very delicate camouflage. Thanks to their tree-like shape, they easily hide in the sand layers to evade enemies and deceive their prey.

Ink squid

Although often called squid, they are not real ink because they look like a hybrid between octopus and squid.

The squid lives in low tidal flats down to 300m deep around the North Pacific from Japan to Southern California, mainly by shrimp and small crustaceans.

White sea spider crab

Tanaoa distinctus, a white sea spider crab, not only has a spider-like appearance, but it can also harm humans if you accidentally touch them.

Pink sea star

The reason this creature is called crunchy starfish because its arms are brittle to create a mechanical defense.

Scientists say the starfish's body structure is radially symmetrical. They can use any combination of the 5 malignant tentacles of the body to move in any direction they want.

Golden hermit crab (Hermit Crab)

These crabs often live in snail shells or similar hollow objects. Their abdomen is usually soft and unprotected.

Therefore, this shell for hermit crabs is very important, often over time developing shells will be replaced to fit the body.

Transparent black eye ink (Gonatus onyx)

Gonatus onyx is a species of squid in the Gonatidae family discovered by scientists in 2000 in the North Pacific Ocean with the highlight is big black eyes round and body length about 18cm.
