The devil firefish, also called the common lionfish, is a striped fish with long, feathery fins. It lives in the Indian Ocean, from the Red Sea to Indonesia, and has also spread into the Mediterranean, the east coast of the United States and the Caribbean. Its fin spines are venomous and can cause severe pain, so give it plenty of room.1

  • It grows up to 35 cm (14 in) long.1
  • Its head is less angular than that of the red lionfish.1

Amaggwa ag'obusagwa

Amaggwa amasongovu ge galimu obusagwa. Okukirinnyako oba okukikwata kiruma.

Akabi eri abantu: Kya maanyiAmaggwa gaakyo bwe gakufumita, genda eri omusawo. Okufa kubaawo kitono nnyo.

The fin spines have caused death in some reported cases, but a sting is rarely fatal. Some people are more sensitive to the venom than others, and symptoms vary in severity from person to person.1

Kikola ki nga kitidde?

Its venomous spines help protect it, which is probably why it has few predators.1

Amaggwa gaakyo bwe gakufumita

  • Immediate emergency medical attention is strongly recommended after any sting, even for healthy adults, because reactions vary and can be unpredictable.1
  • Teeka ekiwundu mu mazzi agookya, agookya nga omuntu bw'asobola okugumiikiriza nga tegamwokya (gagezese n'omukono gwo), okumala eddakiika 30 okutuuka ku 90. Funa obuyambi bw'abasawo, naddala ku stonefish ne stingray.
