CHECK OUT THE PHOTO OF THE BIZARRE LOOKING FISH, CALLED "DEVIL FISH"

The Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute has captured what it says are the first images of a female anglerfish, known as a Black Sea Devil.

Deep sea anglerfish are very rarely observed in their natural habitat.

Fewer than half a dozen have ever been captured on film or video by deep diving research vehicles

The Black Sea Devil species is believed to have never been filmed alive in the wild before.

Due their rarity very little is known about Black Sea Devil

Scientists on a research expedition spotted the bizarre looking fish 2,000 feet below the surface in the dark waters of the Monterey Canyon in the US.

Due their rarity very little is known about Black Sea Devils beyond their life spans and their reproductive biology.

Named for their scary appearance and typically black skin, Black Sea Devils are found in tropical to temperate waters of the Atlantic, Indian, and Pacific Oceans.
