Mola ramsayi
''Mola ramsayi'', known commonly as the southern ocean sunfish, southern sunfish, or short sunfish,〔Diane J. Bray, 2011, Short Sunfish, Mola ramsayi, in Fishes of Australia, accessed 02 Feb 2014, http://www.fishesofaustralia.net.au/home/species/784〕 is a fish belonging to the family Molidae. It is closely related to its congener, the larger and much wider known ''Mola mola'', and is found in the Southern Hemisphere.〔 It can be found basking on its side occasionally near the surface, which is thought to be used to re-heat themselves after diving in cold water for prey, recharge their oxygen stores, and attract seagulls to free them of parasites.〔
==Description==
''Mola ramsayi'' has a relatively small mouth and its teeth fused into a parrot-like beak. It can reach up to in length. Their body is flat and round, with large fins that they swish back and forth to propel themselves with as they swim horizontally. Their skin has rough denticles, leathery texture, with brown and gray coloring with pale blotches until death when they turn white.〔(Southern Ocean Sunfish Australianmuseum.net.au )〕 Both ''mola'' species have no caudal bones, ribs, and pelvic fins and have fused vertebrae, leaving only their median fins to propel themselves. It can be recognized from the ''Mola mola'' by their lesser number of ossicles and lacking the vertical band of denticles at its base.〔
