Model 103A: Deep Sea Booralana Isopod3D Model
This is an 3D animation of a new species of Deep Sea Isopod (Booralana nickorum sp. nov) described from the deep-water slope of the Exuma Sound, The Bahamas. This individual was captured by members of the Cape Eleuthera Institute and OceanX on the RV Alucia in January 2019. CGI artist Robert Gutierrez created the animation in Blender based on a 3D photogrammetry scan and photographs taken at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst.
Photos were taken by Josh Moyer. For more details, see Shipley et al (2023, Zootaxa, November issue). Funding was provided by OceanX to complete this research.
