Reproduction in Ghost Pipefishes

The seahorses and pipefishes (family Syngnathidae) are well known for their unusual reproductive strategies. In these fishes the female deposits her eggs in a abdominal pouch or on the male's ventrum, where they are incubated until they hatch. Although closely related to this family, the ghost pipefishes display a very different reproductive mode.

This CoralRealm feature article examines the reproduction behavior of ghost pipefishes. Included are 3 professional photos of egg-carrying female ghost pipefish.
