Chaenophryne draco is a small fish. Its size range is unknown, but is thought to grow from 8.3 to 12.3 centimeters in length based on two unsexed individuals and one female individual. It has the largest ratio of the number of upper jaw teeth to lower jaw teeth of any species in its genus.
gollark: In that case, clearly the solution is to destroy quantum physics
gollark: I'm sure we can figure out some way to make even smaller transistors somehow, out of individual atoms or something crazy.
gollark: Intel's still struggling with 10 though.
gollark: We got 7nm recently.
gollark: They're basically potatOS but deeply integrated into hardware.
