New animals found in Atlantic

According to the BBC, "A three-week voyage of discovery in the Atlantic has returned with tiny animals which appear new to science. They include waif-like plankton with delicate translucent bodies related to jellyfish, hundreds of microscopic shrimps, and several kinds of fish."

It's a fascinating story. Be sure to check out the "In pictures" feature, too. This little creature here is a baby octopus.
