A nursehound (Scyliorhinus stellaris) watches closely a group of small cod passing by. Shot taken off Chioggia (VE) on one of the many rocky formations developed in the seabed of the upper Adriatic, called Tegnue. These bio-sediments are similar to coral reefs and for this reason they are also called Adriatic coral reefs.
