Sea robins are an extremely unusual group of fishes with a host of dramatic adaptations suited for life on the sea floor. Sea robins belong to a family of ray-finned fishes called Triglids, which inhabit diverse habitats ranging from shallow salt marshes to deep oceans around the world. Most Triglidae fish are benthic specialists that spend much of their time on the ocean bottom where they hunt in the sand for fish, crustaceans, and other invertebrates. To facilitate their benthic lifestyle, sea robins have evolved a number of bizarre traits, the most iconic of which are their six leg-like appendages (Figure 1).
