A second extremely rare deep-sea fish has been found washed up on a Southern California beach, marine biologists say. Someone discovered the body of a Pacific footballfish, a type of anglerfish like one seen in the film “Finding Nemo,” on a beach in Encinitas north of San Diego on Friday, Dec. 10, the Scripps Institution of Oceanography reported on Twitter. Only 31 known specimens of the fish, normally found at extreme ocean depths, have been collected worldwide, the institution said.

Another Pacific footballfish was found Nov. 13 on Black’s Beach in La Jolla, California, McClatchy News reported. Researchers weren’t notified in time to collect that one. The Encinitas find is a mature female measuring 13 inches long and weighing 5.5 pounds, the institution said.
