These weird deep-sea animals, namely, Dendrogramma enigmatica and Dendrogramma discoides, discovered off the coast of Tasmania in 1986, have just been classified - and they're like no animal alive today. The animals' mostly non-symmetrical body plan is unique, which means they’re not part of the Bilateria group, one of the main animal groupings that includes humans.
