EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Moonfish: A Curious Catch from the Depths of the Indo-Pacific" This print showcases a specimen jar containing the enigmatic Mene maculata, also known as the moonfish. This intriguing deep-water, marine fish is a native to the vast Indo-Pacific region, spanning from the Red Sea to the Pacific Ocean. The moonfish, with its unique, mottled, and elongated body, is a member of the Menidae family, order Perciformes, class Perciformes, and phylum Osteichthyes. Its distinctive shape, resembling a flat, round, and disc-like disc with a bulging belly, is a testament to its adaptation to its deep-sea environment. The moonfish is a schooling fish, often found in shallow waters, and is an essential component of the biodiversity of the Asian waters. The specimen held in this jar is a small yet significant addition to the vast collection at the Natural History Museum in London. The moonfish's curious shape and intriguing appearance have long fascinated marine biologists and natural history enthusiasts alike. Its body is covered in small, irregularly shaped spots, giving it a mottled appearance that adds to its allure. Despite its captivating appearance, the moonfish remains a mystery to many, as it is a deep-water fish that is rarely seen by humans. Its elusive nature only adds to the intrigue surrounding this fascinating creature of the sea. This print serves as a reminder of the wonders that lie beneath the surface of the ocean, waiting to be discovered and appreciated. The moonfish, with its unique shape and Indo-Pacific origins, is a testament to the rich biodiversity of our planet and the importance of preserving and studying these remarkable creatures.
