The solution to Bit-o-Critter round 19
Thursday, June 3, 2010 at 9:23PM
Juliebug correctly identified the round 19 bit-o-critter as a remora, Remora remora. These bizarre fish use a modified first dorsal fin as a sort of sucker to hold onto other species, usually bigger things like turtles, sharks and whales. Its actually not much of a sucker, more of a friction pad, but thats another topic for another day. Congrats Julie! Photo by Rene Gallo
