Red lionfish

Pterois volitans
Gbasara aha ya: The common name "lionfish" comes from the fins, which create an appearance similar to a mane, and the scientific name volitans means "flying", probably because of the large pectoral fins that resemble wings.1

The red lionfish is a venomous coral reef fish with long, frilled fins that look like a mane. It is native to the Indo-Pacific, but it has spread into the Caribbean, the east coast of the United States and other areas, where it is an invasive species. Its spreading is a serious problem for local reef life.1

Its venomous spines are used purely for defence. A sting can cause extreme pain, and possibly headaches, vomiting and breathing difficulties.1

Its sting is usually not fatal to humans. Some people are more sensitive to the venom than others, so the effects can be more serious for them.1

Gịnị ka ọ na-eme mgbe ụjọ tụrụ ya?

When threatened, it turns its venomous dorsal spines towards the attacker, even if it has to swim upside down.1

  • A common treatment is soaking the affected area in hot water, as very few hospitals carry specific treatments. Immediate emergency medical attention is strongly recommended, because some people react more strongly than others.1

Eziokwu

1

About 93% of the invasive lionfish population is the red lionfish.1

2

It strikes at prey that comes within 9 cm of its mouth, drawing the prey in with a sudden rush of water.1

3

Lionfish reproduce monthly, which helps their numbers grow quickly in new areas.1

4

Lionfish larvae hatch 36 hours after fertilisation.1

5

The larval stage is the shortest part of its life, lasting about one month.1
