Seahorse
Seahorses – Hippocampus
Seahorses are a group of 54 small marine fish species belonging to the genus Hippocampus, a name derived from the Ancient Greek words hippos (horse) and kampos (sea monster). Known for their horse-like heads and upright posture, seahorses are armored with bony plates instead of scales and have a distinctive curled prehensile tail. Their unusual forms, gentle movements, and delicate details make them captivating subjects for underwater photography.
