  • This is an ocean sunfish (Mola mola), around 1.5m in length, basking on the ocean surface near land. One hypothesis concerning why these fish engage in such behavior is that they seek the help of ocean-going birds to remove parasites. Sunfish are host to many species of parasites, including copepods and nematodes.

  • This is a horned isopod (Deto echinata), a species of air-breathing isopod that inhabits seashores of southern Africa. This isopod is a woodlouse, which is an isopod that is adapted to terrestrial rather than aquatic life. This species lives onshore, feeding in the intertidal zone on carrion and plant material washed up by the ocean, as well as small live prey. The horns on the backs of this species are longer in males than in females. This is a male, about two centimeters in length.
