Great job undertaking the task of researching a deep sea organism that has very little data available! It is really impressive how much information you all were able to find. I think the decision to focus on bioluminescence was necessary.

A suggestion would be to add pictures or images that might help with understanding of the spacing of the photophores on the slendertail lantern shark's body. I understand there probably aren't many images available, but it would be really helpful to visualize, for example, the "SBAPs that are found between the base of the shark's head and then towards the end of the tail".

This concluding sentence "With separate studies and sources corroborating behavioral characteristics, counter-illumination and camouflage are the most likely situations for E. molleri's bioluminescence." feels repetitive with the rest of the paragraph, since both are already mentioned.

Few punctuation errors- change "sharks" to "shark's" at a few spots.

Is there any more information available on the morphology of the lanternshark? It's entirely possible that there isn't, but I think having this context would be more helpful to understanding the physical layout of the photophores on the different zones of the shark. Also any evolutionary information on it- maybe not the entire thing but whatever is pertinent to the bioluminescence?
