Bioluminescent benthic polychaete Aricidea sp. (A) Aricidea sp. photographed under bright-field illumination. (B) Natural habitat of Aricidea sp. at a depth of 461 m off Minamidaito Island (25° 57.48′ N 131° 20.60′ E). (C) The green bioluminescence of Aricidea sp. was induced by stimulating with a drop of 2.5 M KCl. Photographed using a digital camera SONY alpha 7 s III: exposure time 10 s, f/2.8, ISO 102,400. (D) The same frame as (C) under bright-field illumination.
