  • Goby, Pterogobius zacalles, found in shallow rocky bottoms. Range: Northwest Pacific around Japan and Cheju Island in the Yellow Sea. Chinese name 1 五带高鳍鰕虎鱼, Chinese name 2 五帶高鰭鰕虎魚 photographed by Zhifu Island (Chinese: 芝罘島), Shandong Province, China, byt the Bohai Sea, that is the inner part of the Yellow Sea where both the Yellow River and Hai He flow into.<br />
<br />
Conservation: The Yellow Sea is one of the most threatened marine areas on earth. Land reclamation has destructed more than 60% of tidal wetlands in only 50 years. Rapid coastal development for agriculture, aquaculture and industrial.development are primary drivers of coastal destruction in the region. In addition pollution, harmful algal blooms, invasion of introduced species are having a negative effect. There are 25 intentionally introduced species and 9 unintentionally introduced species in the Yellow Sea marine ecosystem.

  • Crinoid on Gorgonia. Expedition "In the footsteps of Alfred Wallace" to Bird's neck peninsular, Papua Barat province, Indonesia<br />
<br />
Ancient arms - Three feeding arms hanging down from a crinoid, a marine animal, which here clings itself onto a coral sea fan. These ancient animals are often called sea lilies and they live in both shallow water and as depth water as 9 000 meters (30 000 feet). This variant have both small legs and longer feeding arms, and they can also actively swim buy undulating their feeding arms in an amazing swimming style.<br />
<br />
There are some 600 crinoid species in the ocean. Long time ago they were much more abundant and diverse, and limestone beds dating to the Paleozoic are almost entirely made up of disarticulated crinoid fragments.
