New species of ‘ghost shark’ emerges from the depths in New Zealand

The specimens were discovered during research in the Chatham Rise, an area of the Pacific which stretches around 1,000km (621 miles) east near New Zealand’s South Island.

Ghost sharks, or chimaeras, are related to sharks and rays, but are part of a group of fish whose skeletons are entirely made of cartilage.

Also known as spookfish, the ghost sharks have haunting black eyes and smooth, light brown, scale-free skin.
