Idiacanthus antrostomus, also known as the Pacific blackdragon or black sea dragon, [3] is a species of barbeled dragonfishes noted for having ultrablack skin, similar to pigments like Vantablack. The fish has tightly packed melanosomes allowing its skin to absorb 99.95% of light of wavelengths common in its habitat.
Anatomical differences between female and male Idiacanthus atlanticus. Female I. atlanticus have small eyes, a chin barbel, and large jaw teeth. The smaller male has neither teeth, chin barbel, nor a functioning gut. Both males and females have small photophores spread throughout the body. Larger photophores can be found along the body side.
