    New species of fish found off the coast of Brazil

A strange new species of fish has been found off the coast of Brazil.

The huge fish, which was just under two metres long and weighed 40 kilograms was found floating dead in the sea.

It had small teeth and no scales, but researchers said that because the jelly-like fish had a large fat content it probably was not edible.
