Moses sole
Strup v kožiJe: MesoStrupena za dotik ali zaužitje, ne ob ugrizu ali pikuThe Moses sole is a flatfish that lives in shallow coastal waters of the western Indian Ocean, from the Red Sea to Sri Lanka and along the east coast of Africa. It hides on the seabed and gives off a milky toxin from its fins to deter predators, including sharks.1

Kako jo prepoznaš
- Colour is variable, often whitish, pale brown or pale grey, with irregular dark brown ring-shaped markings1
- Many dark brown spots cover the head, body and fins1
- Normally two brown dots containing yellow flecks sit along the lateral line1
- Adults have a highly compressed, flat-sided body, with both eyes on the right side of the head1
- The rounded tail fin is not joined to the dorsal or cloacal fin1
Pogosto zamenjujejo z: Mimic octopuses copy the finless sole by adapting their shape, colour and texture. They can also mimic venomous sea snakes and fish.1
Moč strupa
Njena koža je strupena. Nevarno se je je dotakniti, jo polizati ali pojesti.
Kaj naredi njen strup, če se je dotakneš ali jo poješ?
The finless sole releases a milky toxin called an ichthyotoxin from the base of its dorsal and cloacal fins. The main toxin, pardaxin, damages cell membranes so that cells leak their contents. It irritates the sensitive gills of predator fish.1
Kako nevarna je za ljudi?
Nevarnost za ljudi: BlagaKot čebelji pik ali manj. Za ljudi praktično neškodljiva.It is caught for food and sold fresh, even though its skin secretion is poisonous.1
Kaj naredi, ko se prestraši?
When threatened, it releases its toxic milky secretion from its fins, and its colour helps it blend in with sandy or pebbled seabeds.1
Če se je je kdo dotaknil ali jo pojedel
- Če jo je kdo pojedel ali ima po zaužitju simptome: takoj pokliči številko za klic v sili ali center za zastrupitve.
Vedno najprej pokliči številko za klic v sili (112, 000, 911). To so splošna navodila za prvo pomoč, ne zdravniški nasvet. Osnove prve pomoči
Ostani varen
- Nikoli se ne dotikaj divje živali, je ne lovi in je ne draži, tudi če je majhna in tudi če je videti, kot da spi ali je mrtva.
- Pusti ji prostor. Če jo srečaš, ostani miren, počasi stopi nazaj in jo pusti, da gre svojo pot.
- Če si se je dotaknil ali jo pojedel: ne drgni si oči ali ust, umij si roke in poišči zdravniško pomoč.
Ne preži nate. Njen strup je tam samo zato, da je nihče ne poje. Več o varnosti

Dejstva
One of its toxins, pardaxin-1, is 5 to 10 times more toxic than pardaxin-2 and has unusual shark-repelling properties.1
Its toxin, pardaxin, is used by the fish as a defence against sharks.1
Mimic octopuses copy its shape, colour and texture, and can also copy venomous sea snakes and fish.1
Juveniles have one eye on each side of the head, but as they mature the left eye moves to the right side.1
Eugenie Clark carried out much of the early research on this species.1
