Beautiful specimen of Gorgonocephalus from the Ligurian Sea and recovered with fishing nets at great depths.
This type of animal is very difficult to keep because once caught they resort to autotomy. In this way they try to free themselves by losing part of their limbs.
This specimen grew on a man-made fragment that ended up on the seabed due to strong swells.
As visible in the photo, gorgonian branches are also present.
Mounted on a metal stand, this wonder of nature can be elegantly displayed in any environment and curio cabinet.
