| Description |
Beautiful long-spined sea urchins gather in Flower Garden Banks National Marine Sanctuary. Though these fascinating creatures were almost entirely wiped out by an epidemic in the 1980s, they've make an incredible comeback throughout the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean. This is great news in the region, because these organisms help prevent algae overgrowth by grazing on algae across reefs! Photo Credit: G.P. Schmahl/NOAA |
