Giant sea stars or starfish that measure 24 inches (60 centimeters) across are held by Sadie Mills, left, and Niki Davey of New Zealand’s National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research on February 15, 2008.
They and other researchers collected 30,000 sea creatures—many new to science—during a 35-day census in Antarctic waters in February and March, according to a March 26 announcement.
The large-scale survey was part of the International Polar Year and Census of Antarctic Marine Life programs, which study the diversity of Antarctic marine life.

This 19-inch-long (50-centimeter-long) daggertooth sports a striking iridescent body and sapphire blue eyes. 
An Antarctic neighbor of the predatory stareater, this fish is one of the southernmost daggertooths ever caught, said New Zealand scientists who captured it during a marine census in early 2008.
The animal uses its long mouth and forward-curved teeth to immobilize prey, clamping down and pulling back to tear through and paralyze the victim’s spine.
This is really interesting, I think is special type of star fish.
