Crocodile icefish
The crocodile icefishes are a family (Channichthyidae) of perciform fish found in the cold waters around Antarctica and southern South America. They are notable for lacking red blood cells; it is believed that they rely on the well-oxgenated water and absorb oxygen directly through the skin.
