This is a really odd one. It is related to the Sea Horse but it looks more like we have been visited by aliens and some have stayed behind.

Fun puzzle! I love that they are real!

Initial LL solves 39%.

C1: EL marks R3-8 black. LL gets to 97%.

R9: If the remaining 1 is placed in C40, it would place black in R13 C36-37, which would make R15 invalid. Therefore R9C34 is black instead.

LL to finish.

Found to be solvable with moderate lookahead by wombatilim.
