about

In his deep-sea expeditions in the Bathysphere off Bermuda between 1930 and 1934, naturalist William Beebe, accompanied by the vehicle's inventor, Otis Barton, made sightings of several abyssal marine organisms which have never been seen since. Their existence remains unconfirmed.

These include the Abyssal Rainbow Gar (a 4 inch fish with a scarlet head, long beak, blue body, and yellow tail, which swam with a stiff, upright posture), the Pallid Sailfin (a 25 foot, greyish-black fish with a 5 foot, erect dorsal fin), the Three-Starred Anglerfish (a black, 6 inch, oval-shaped anglerfish with small eyes and 3 "fishing-rod" lures tipped with pale-yellow photophores), the Five-Lined Constellation Fish (a fish with a round body, five lines of purple and yellow photophores along its sides, large eyes, and small pectoral fins), and the Bathysphaera Intacta (a 6 foot long fish with a row a pale-blue photophores along its sides and two tentacles, each tipped with a pair of red and blue photophores).*
