BLUESTRIPE SNAPPER ta'ape
Yosuji-fuedai
Schools are locally common on reefs at any
depth. Disperses at night to feed upon crustaceans and small
fishes, depleting stocks of commercially important native crabs and reef
fish. Introduced to Hawaii from the Marquesas Islands in
1958 with the intent of supplementing stocks of edible reef fish. It is
an excellent food fish but unpopular due to the stigma of its invasive
nature. Attains 13 inches. Red Sea to French Polynesia. |
