Fine Fine English Original bdg. Dust wrapper. 4to. (34 x 22 cm). In English. Color photos. 253, [2] p. "Underwater Reflections is Alptekin Baloglu's dazzling celebration in words and photographies of undersea worlds in Turkey, The Red Sea, Belize and The Maldives. In 256 pages illustrated with 212 sumptuous photographs, he shows us the mysterious and startling peculiarities of life forms which have evolved under the sea for millions of years. Are you ready to experience the mysteries of the underwater world? The seastar (starfish), whose powerful arms can reach into a mussel shell open only a millimeter to insert their own stomach and digest their victim. Coral, created by symbiosis between plant and animal, has given life to the seas for 500 million years. Squid, who in order to propagate themselves, relinquish life as soon as they have laid their eggs. Decorator crabs, who disguise themselves by breaking off particles of coral to stick over their bodies. Putterfish, who in their internal organs carry nature's most deadly poison. Male anemonefish, who, when their mate dies, change their sex and become female. Butterflyfish who spend their entire lives with one mate."
