I thought it was the lantern fish, but I may be wrong!

A specimen of the 20cm long fish "Abyssobrotula galatheae", of the family Ophidiidae, has been collected from the Puerto Rico Trench at a depth of 8,370m (27,455 feet).
However, an unidentified specimen of sea cucumber (which despite its name is an animal) was taken from the Philippine Trench in 1951 at 10,190 meters (33,431 feet).

I don't know the name of the species but the Trieste photographed some kind of shrimp at a depth of almost 36,000 feet. They also saw soles and flounders at that depth. The pressure there is about seven tons per square inch.
