A fisherman has found a “dragon”-like fish off the coast of Tromsø in Norway, adding to the collection of weird creatures he has pulled from the depths.
Roman Fedortsov, who works on commercial trawlers, was fishing in the Norwegian Sea when he came across the unusual-looking creature.
He snapped a photograph of the fish, which appears light pink in colour, with large eyes, wing shapes on the body and a long tail.
Sharing the picture on Instagram with his 646,000 followers, Roman wrote: “Just a quote ‘It’s one thing to chase something nameless, but quite another thing to find it’ – G.F. Lovecraft.”
The post racked up more than 22,000 likes, with users baffled by the bizarre-looking beast.

“God. The Dragon. Cool what! Who is this anyway??” another user commented.
Someone else said: “Sea or ocean Chupacabra?!?”

“It is better to look at such creatures from afar. Indeed, the depths of the sea are unknown,” commented another user.
The fish was identified as a chimaera – a cartilaginous fish also known as “ghost sharks”.

His nets are dropped down into an area known as the Twilight Zone which is between 3,300 and 6,600 feet below the surface.
Less than 0.05 % of this ecosystem has been explored by humans and has in the past thrown up some bizarre species.

Recent bizarre sea creatures discovered included a sad looking pale toadfish, a sandy fish which appears to walk along the ocean floor and a small deep-sea dragon fish called a stoplight loose jaw.
