The Most Abundant Fish You’ve Never Seen

with Dr. Karly Cohen

Just below our docks is one of the Salish Sea’s most abundant, and most misunderstood, fishes: the Spotted Ratfish.

Ratfish are ancient relatives of sharks and rays, remnants of a much more diverse group of fishes that dominated the oceans before a mass extinction reshaped marine life. This talk dives into ratfish biology, from their hidden nursery grounds here is Friday Harbor to an evolutionary plot twist involving a tooth-covered mating structure unlike anything else in vertebrates. It’s a story of backyard discovery, strange anatomy, and why studying overlooked species can change how we think about evolution, conservation, and the future of marine science.

Join us for Science Uncorked!

Olivia J. Graham, PhD is a Postdoctoral Research Associate at Cornell University. Conducting field- and lab-based experiments at UW Friday Harbor Labs, she studies the health and resilience of local eelgrass (Zostera marina) meadows in the Salish Sea. She is continually fascinated by these humble—yet remarkable—marine plants, and loves sharing her knowledge about these invaluable habitats with others. 

In her talk, she will discuss the significance of eelgrass in sustaining coastal ecosystems and her eelgrass health and resilience research based at University of Washington’s Friday Harbor Labs on San Juan Island.
