One of the first diverse 'fish burritos' was used to develop automatic segmentation techniques. One of my favorite fish in that can is Bellator militaris - the horned searobin.

Looks at the armor patch on the belly and the damage to the opercular spines.

One of the smallest Armored Sea Robins that I’ve ever seen - its body a little larger than a pea.
This is the same species featured in my Aliens Collection Print, “Alien #27”.

Can’t speak to whatever strategy I was originally going for, but me and my armored searobin are going places.

Finding a larval Armored Sea Robin (Peristediidae sp.) drifting through the nighttime open ocean is likely the closest we’ll ever come to finding a dragon.

Looking like a big, scary dragon, this very rare, teensy, tiny baby Armored Sea Robin is always a pleasure to find. This is the same species featured in my print, “Alien 27”

I love the diversity of #fishfaces

These are images from a collecting trip to Taiwan in 2006 (the first of three trips I have made to that beautiful island).

Bellator militaris — the horned searobin. Just like other armored searobins, they possess modified pectoral fin rays used to walk and detect food on the seafloor.

This specimen is TCWC 6818.17 available on MorphoSource.

When you visit Friday Harbor Labs, @fishguy.bsky.social always has cool fish to discuss 🐟 Last week we pondered the horned searobin (Bellator militaris), & what its spines could be for. CT scan available on MorphoSource for you to explore

#FishADay Scalicus engyceros An armored searobin with no English common name. Benthic, deep Pacfic, often associated with seamounts. Skitters along the seafloor on spidery "legs" that are actually modified pectoral fin rays.

Any time I feel the slightest urge to be pessimistic about my art I go to my doodle folder and think like, "yeah this is a really good drawing of an armored sea robin my twelve year old self would've been proud of" and "yeah, i should be a featured artist in National Geographic Kids". #SciArt
A rough but clean drawing of a large armored searobin which is a kind of weird fish, uncolored.

New research reports the first in situ observation of backward walking in a #fish. Researchers observed the armored searobin Scalicus engyceros walking both sideways and backward on the #seafloor in the South China Sea.👇

For day 12 of #fishmas, and keeping on-theme, here's a baby and adult leopard searobin.

The odd little 'fingers' under the head are modified fin rays, and are used to walk and feel around in soft substrates for buried prey. They are covered in taste buds and are very sensitive.

#25DaysofFishmas
Photograph of a juvenile leopard searobin held in the palm of my hand. It is scarcely an inch long, with a large head in front of a tail that tapers off quickly. It's wing-like pectoral fins are little, and spread wide like paper fans. The three free pectoral fin rays, resembling the legs of an insect, are held out forwards just underneath the head in front of the pectoral fins. The body color is light brown, with subtly darker bars. Photo of a leopard searobin sitting on my hand just under the surface. It's much larger than the juvenile, taking up most of the space of my hand with just the front half of it's body. The winglike pectoral fins are not fully spread, but are much wider. They feature reddish spots. The little 'legs' are also more robust. The fish is shot from dorsal view, and it's body coloration is akin to that of the juvenile but much darker. The fish features distinct spots along it's flanks, and it's caudal fin is noticeably spotted as well. It's head is slightly flattened, with two eyes on top somewhat like a frog, seated upon a mouth that is somewhat comparable to the bill of a duck.
