1. Transparent frog
Native of Venezuela, the Glass Frogs belong to the family Centrolenidae amphibians (order Anura). While the general background color of most of the lime-green glass frog, these animals have a transparent abdominal skin, so the heart, liver, and digestive tract are visible through the skin.
2. Fish head transparent
This strange-water fish called Barreleye (Macropinna microstoma) has a head and tubular eyes. It is extremely light-sensitive eyes that can rotate, fluid-filled shield on its head, while the tubular eyes of fish, both in the head, bordered by bright green lenses. Eyes point upward (as shown here) when the fish looking for food overhead. They point forward when the fish feed. Two points above the fish's mouth are not eyes: those are olfactory organs called nares, which is analogous to the human nose.
3. Butterflies transpara n
Found in Central America, from Baja to Panama, Glasswing Butterfly (Greta Oto) is a brush-footed butterfly where its wings. Tissue between the veins of its wings looks like glass.
4. Transparent squid
Found in the southern hemisphere oceans, Glass Squid (Teuthowenia pellucida) has light organs on the eye and have the ability to roll into a ball, like a sea urchin. This is the prey of many deep-sea fish (eg goblin sharks) as well as whales and oceanic seabirds.
5. Transparent Zebrafish
This see-through zebrafish was created in 2008 by scientists so they can study disease processes, including the spread of cancer. Fish that are transparent allowing researchers at Children's Hospital Boston to directly view fish's internal organs and observe processes like tumor growth in real-time in living organisms.
6. Transparent Icefish
7. Transparent amphipod
Called Phronima, this unusual animal is one of the many strange species recently found on an expedition into the mountains in the Atlantic ocean Utara.Para scientists said In an ironic strategy of survival of small shrimplike creature shows everything that is in the and beyond in an effort to disappear.
8. Shrimp larvae are transparent
Found in the waters around Hawaii, this shrimp larvae pig's back.

6. Transparent Icefish
Funds in the cold waters around Antarctica and southern South America, the crocodile icefish (Channichthyidae) eat krill, copepods, and other fish. Their blood is transparent because they have no hemoglobin and / or simply not functioning erythrocytes. Their metabolism relies only on the oxygen dissolved in the liquid blood, which is believed to be absorbed directly through the skin from the water. This works because water can dissolve oxygen during the coldest. In five species, the gene for myoglobin in the muscles has also vanished, leaving them with a white heart, not pink.

10. Transparent Jellyfish
Jellyfish are free-swimming members of the phylum Cnidaria. They are found in every ocean, from the surface into the sea. Many jellies are so transparent until they are almost impossible to see. The one above is from the genus Arctapodema, with a length of one inch (2.5 centimeter-long).
