Description
Hippocampus bargibanti is arguably one of the most well camouflaged species in the oceans. It is extremely difficult to spot amongst the gorgonian coral it inhabits. So effective is this camouflage that the species wasnââ¬â¢t actually discovered until its host gorgonian was being examined in a lab. Large, bulbous tubercles cover this speciesââ¬â¢ body and match the colour and shape of the polyps of its host species of gorgonian coral, while its body matches the gorgonian stem.
