Seemingly advertising themselves with the bold colours on their
disk-like bodies, Butterflyfishes are amongst the most conspicuous fishes that
swim openly on coral reefs. They are admired by snorkelers and divers, and are
also amongst the most popular and sought after fishes for the marine aquarium.
Over 130 species of butterflyfishes and bannerfishes occur in tropical seas
around the world. Most live at shallow depths, but a few species were observed
at about 200m, too deep for an amateur diver. Photographs of such species are
included here. Author: Rudy Kuiter. 208 Pages.
