小知識
A single juvenile was recorded in the eastern Mediterranean off Cyprus in 2018, well outside its usual range.1
It feeds on a wide mix of plants and animals, from algae and corals to crabs and starfish.1
Adults live alone and are territorial, and they can become somewhat aggressive.1
Its rings around the eyes become more complete as it grows, so juveniles can be identified by their incomplete rings.1
Adults are nocturnal, which means they are most active at night.1
