Original – Dendrogramma enigmatica
Reason
Image meets size and technical criteria and has high encyclopedic value. We are unlikely to get any better photos of the species since no one appears to have found any more of them. The image comes from the original open access paper so is pretty much the definitive image at this point. I'd like to get it to featured status so we have something to run on the main page for Open Access Week.

  • Support Wow, I'm so thankful that open access papers exist. And more thankful that it's been confirmed that this image is indeed in public domain. I would say it's a perfect image of this tiny bizarre creature. Mattximus (talk) 20:31, 25 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - There's at least one hot pixel. Also, the specimen appears a little noisy, as if this was shot at a high ISO. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:46, 25 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support It's not perfect but the rarity makes me support. In case they are found and photographed again, a replacement can be done --Muhammad(talk) 05:47, 26 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak support - What the hey, it is a rare image, and I've taken care of the hot pixel. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 09:45, 1 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
