# :ocean: Cifonauta, an image database for marine biology

The **[Cifonauta database](http://cifonauta.cebimar.usp.br/)** aims to showcase the outstanding biodiversity in our seas and oceans.

We host thousands of [photos](http://cifonauta.cebimar.usp.br/search/?datatype=photo) and [videos](http://cifonauta.cebimar.usp.br/search/?datatype=video) of marine organisms—from the [common creatures](http://cifonauta.cebimar.usp.br/media/9442/) you spot on the beach to the [rarest forms](http://cifonauta.cebimar.usp.br/media/9147/) only visible under the microscope.

The images were made by scientists during their research, and are annotated with [accurate scientific information](http://cifonauta.cebimar.usp.br/tags/), such as taxonomic classification, geolocation, habitat, life stage, size, and links to [primary literature](http://cifonauta.cebimar.usp.br/literature/).

You can [search](http://cifonauta.cebimar.usp.br/search/) for your favorite organism or enjoy a curated journey through the diversity of [marine larvae](http://cifonauta.cebimar.usp.br/tour/larvas-marinhas/) or [gelatinous creatures](http://cifonauta.cebimar.usp.br/tour/aguas-vivas-e-outras-criaturas-gelatinosas/) in our [thematic tours](http://cifonauta.cebimar.usp.br/tours/).
