Washington, July 9: It is amazing but true. Even as tonnes of oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, experts have discovered two new fish species in the now polluted waters.
A research describes the new species as pancake batfishes, which live in waters either partially or fully.
Pancake batfishes are members of the anglerfish family Ogcocephalidae, a group of about 70 species of flat bottom-dwellers that often live in deep, perpetually dark waters, says a release from the American Museum.
