MACRO SIMILLAN ISLANDS

by admin on Mar.18, 2010, under Macro, Thailand

I would like to share some of the macro pictures from my trip to Thailand. I will try to share them and give information about the species as much as I could.

Please click on the figure in order to enlarge them

We have spent 40 days in Thailand and Cambodia and I had a chance to dive in different locations in Thailand. The first one was Beautiful Simillan Islands. These pictures were from East of Eden dive sight (night dive).

Simillan Islands is northwest of Phuket. You can either go there from Phuket with daily tours (which I don’t recommend as it takes long time to get there) or you can go up north to the town where they take you to the Islands. Spending some time there, is a better way to experience the place.


I wish I had some more chances for night diving as I have encountered many nocturnal animals (night time lovers).Night diving gives great opportunities for photography and better light.

We spent one night and 2 days of diving in Simillan Islands (5 dives), great place and rich marine life.

The only dissapontment for me was not seeing any sharks or other big guys except for turtles but the richness of the marine life is stunning indeed.

Dancing on the fishing line

by admin on Mar.11, 2010, under Eastern Mediterranean Marine Species, Sea Slugs & Flatworms

Flabellina affinis

During the search for new species for my project, this beautiful seaslug was dancing on the fishing line as I saw it. Its movents was beautiful changing shape every second with the current. It was trying to find his way receiving chemical signals from the water probably and eating his lunch,  the algae on the fishing line

Question: Guess where it was trying to reach?

flabellina-affinis-ipte3

 Answer: Tring to reach to another one which is waiting on the Eudendrium hydroid species full off Flabellina eggs at the background

TUNICATES-TUNİKAT

by admin on Jul.02, 2009, under Tunicates - Tunikatlar

Tunicate, also known as urochordata, tunicata (and by the common names of urochordates, sea squirts, and sea pork[1]) is a subphylum of a group of underwater saclike filter feeders with incurrent and excurrent siphons, that are members of the phylum Chordata. Most tunicates feed by filtering sea water through pharyngeal slits, but some are sub-marine predators such as the Megalodicopia hians. Like other chordates, tunicates have a notochord during their early development, but lack myomeric segmentation throughout the body and tail as adults. Tunicates lack the kidney-like metanephridial organs, and the original coelom body-cavity develops into a pericardial cavity and gonads. Except for the pharynx, heart and gonads, the organs are enclosed in a membrane called an epicardium, which is surrounded by the jelly-like mesenchyme. Tunicates begin life in a mobile larval stage that resembles a tadpole, later developing into a barrel-like and usually sedentary adult form.

While most tunicates live on the ocean floor, salps, doliolids, and pyrosomes live above in the pelagic zone as adults.

Tunicates apparently evolved in the early Cambrian period, beginning c 540 million years ago. Despite their simple appearance, tunicates are closely related to vertebrates, which include fish and all land animals with bones.

ZOOLOGY: A hydroid in zoology is an animal that superficially appears plant-like. Hydroids are however carnivorous animals that feed on minute crustaceans. Hydroids are related to jellyfish, sea anemones and corals. Some species live a solitary existence, others live in colonies.

BOTANY: A hydroid in botany is a type of cell contained in many mosses. When it dies, it leaves a tiny channel which water can travel through. The hydroid may be the progenitor of the tracheid, the characteristic water-conducting cell of the tracheophytes. The hydroid lacks lignin (a waterproofing substance that also lends structural support) and the cell wall structure found in tracheids.
