Harlequin Sweetlips
Scientific name: Plectorhinchus chaetodontoides
A Harlequin Sweetlips - Photographed around the Komodo National Park, Indonesia
Juveniles of this species apparently imitate flatworms. They're also brown with white spots, which reverse to white/yellow with black spots in adult-hood.
Please note: Identification of fish, corals, etc. is a tricky business. It's entirely possible that I've incorrectly identified a photo I've taken. If you spot an error, please contact me so I can correct it and improve this resource.
