dark toadfish (Neophrynichthys latus)

toadfish is the common NZ name, but this fish is actually a member of the family Psychrolutidae (blobfish) rather than Batrachoididae. The photo is a bit blurry because as a deeper-water fish with large sensitive eyes I did not want to use the flash on him. Photo taken August 2010

      Not a species that you would see often, right?
