Surveys record 'brainless fish'
28 December 2011
Last updated at 19:21 ET
Scotland's biggest horse mussel bed and a "faceless and brainless" fish were recorded during government-backed surveys this year.
The work covered almost 2,200 square miles - equivalent to an area one and a quarter times the size of the Cairngorms National Park.
The Scottish government has hailed the finds made during the surveys.
WWF Scotland said the results highlighted the need to better protect the marine environment.
Scottish Natural Heritage and Edinburgh's Heriot-Watt University were among organisations that carried out the work.
Underwater video was shot and acoustic and 3D images were used in the surveys.
Vessels from Marine Scotland, the Scottish Environment Protection Agency (Sepa) and the Northern Lighthouse Board were also involved.
Several rare species were recorded.
Off the west coast, fan mussels were found. Growing to up to 48cm long, the mussels are Scotland's largest sea shell.
Around the Small Isles more than 100 specimens of marine life were noted.
Off Tankerness on Orkney, the government said the prehistoric "faceless and brainless" amphioxus fish was recorded.
The rarely-seen species was regarded as a modern representative of the first animals that evolved a backbone, the Scottish government said.
With a nerve chord down its back, the fish does not have a clearly defined face or brain.
The largest horse mussel bed in Scotland was recorded near Noss Head in Caithness.
The molluscs stabilise seabeds, which in turn provides habitat for other species, and can live up to 50 years.
Other finds included flame shell beds in Loch Linnhe in Argyll and new communities of northern feather star off the Sound of Canna.
Environment Secretary Richard Lochhead described the finds as "weird and wonderful".
He added: "The waters around Scotland are rich in such fascinating biodiversity and it's our responsibility to protect this fragile environment.
"That's why we have ramped up our marine survey work, with plans being prepared for new surveys in 2012 to further our knowledge of what lies beneath Scotland's seas."
'Future generations'Susan Davies, director of policy and advice with Scottish Natural Heritage, said Scotland's seas were a "fantastic asset".
She added: "The findings from these surveys will help us to manage them sustainably and ensure future generations can also enjoy the benefits of a healthy and diverse marine environment."
WWF Scotland's head of policy, Dr Dan Barlow, said the surveys had confirmed that the seas and coasts provided important habitats for wildlife.
He said: "From helping inform the appropriate deployment of marine renewables?to supporting the roll out of a network of Marine Protected Areas, these survey findings will prove invaluable in helping ensure the recovery of Scotland's seas.
"It is important that the government builds on this survey work to further our knowledge of the marine environment."

Could a compound in fish oil cure leukemia?
A compound produced from EPA -- Eicosapentaenoic Acid -- an Omega-3 fatty acid found in fish oils may help cure chronic myelogenous leukemia, or CML. In their study, Penn State researchers found the compound delta-12-protaglandin J3, or D12-PGJ3 honed in on and killed CML stem cells in mice.
Targeting stem cells as a cure for chronic myelogenous leukemia, which is one of four main types of blood and bone marrow cancer, is important because stem cells can divide to create more stem cells that in turn spread cancer.
Sandeep Prabhu, associate professor of immunology and molecular toxicology in the Department of Veterinary and Medical Sciences at Penn State said, "Research in the past on fatty acids has shown the health benefits of fatty acids on cardiovascular system and brain development, particularly in infants, but we have shown that some metabolites of Omega-3 have the ability to selectively kill the leukemia-causing stem cells in mice. The important thing is that the mice were completely cured of leukemia with no relapse."
Robert Paulson, associate professor of veterinary and biomedical sciences, who co-directed the research with professor Prabhu, explains drugs taken for leukemia don?t cure the disease, but instead suppress the number of leukemia cells. Eventually, patients develop resistance to the drugs, which must be taken continuously.
According to the National Institutes of Health, the only known cure to date for CML is a bone marrow or stem cell transplant.
Symptoms of leukemia include easy bruising, petechial rash, enlarged spleen that manifests as pressure or a feeling of fullness under the left rib cage, low grade fever, weakness and fatigue and excessive sweating.
The disease has three stages ? chronic, accelerated and blast crisis. In the chronic phase, there are few symptoms. When leukemia accelerates, fever and other symptoms occur. During the blast crisis phase ? the most dangerous - that can occur if CML is left untreated, bleeding and infection can occur.
In the study, mice given approximately 600 nanograms of the fish oil compound D12-PGJ3 daily, for a week, were completely cured of the disease. They did not experience relapse and spleen size and blood counts returned to normal.
The researchers used the fish oil compound because it had few side effects. The next step is to see if the blast crisis stage of chronic myelogenous leukemia will respond to D12-PGJ3. The finding means there may be a cure for leukemia on the horizon, thanks to fish oil. The researchers are planning on testing the compound in humans.

Giana Gergoire miraculously survived the brain cancer she was diagnosed with in 2010, but the disease took a toll on her dental health.
The 12-year-old suffered from tooth decay, cavities, gaps and discoloring. But her family didn't have enough money to pay for her dental treatment. And
Gergoire, having missed a year of school due to her illness, desperately wanted a new smile to accompany her renewed lease on life.
Then Dr. Lee Gause, a dentist with Smile Design in Manhattan, showed up at her door and offered to do all her dental work for free.
He had asked his followers on Facebook to identify someone in need of a healthy smile for the holidays. And he found Gergoire.
"I am really grateful and thankful for that and I really appreciate it," she said.
Shortly thereafter, Gergoire found herself sitting in the dental chair for the first time. After more than an hour, Gause held up a mirror so Gergoire could see the finished product.
"At first I was scared but then I was happy because I finally got my teeth whitened and cavities fixed," she said.
Gause said it would take some time before the work he intends to do on Gergoire is completely finished, but she's off to a great start.
He estimated the pro bono job would involve about $10,000 in dental work when its completed.

Wives in ads, kids on the bus as GOP voting nears (AP)
CONCORD, N.H. ? Mitt Romney's wife gushes about his silly side and devotion to their five sons and 16 grandchildren. Rick Santorum's college-age daughter opines online about missing the campus coffee shop and chats with friends about their Friday night plans. Jon Huntsman's daughters generate much-needed buzz for him with a joint Twitter account and online videos, including at least one that went viral.
Days away from voting in the Republican presidential race, the path to the nomination is quickly becoming a crowded family affair with spouses and offspring pitching in and doing far more than just smiling from the sidelines.
Ann Romney, Anita Perry and Callista Gingrich are starring in new TV ads for the husbands they've loyally campaigned for. Romney extols her husband's character and says "to me that makes a huge difference" in a candidate. Perry tells the "old-fashioned American story" of how she and her husband were high school sweethearts who had to wait until he was done flying airplanes around the world for the Air Force before they could marry. Callista Gingrich wishes the nation a Merry Christmas "from our family to yours" in Gingrich's new holiday-themed TV ad.
Candidate kids, including those born to Michele Bachmann and Ron Paul, are helping, too, acting as surrogates, strategists and, in some cases, sounding boards for parents competing for the right to challenge President Barack Obama next fall.
Such involvement can be a huge asset to the presidential hopefuls, typically in highlighting a politician's softer side.
But the relatives are hardly polished public speakers who agree with everything their loved one says or does, and their slip-ups, potential conflicts and backgrounds can have consequences for the candidates.
