Unidentified lefteye flounders
Photograph taken by Sabine Rock taken in Redang, Malaysia
Comment from the photographer: Is it a flatworm or something else - with one spike and a little tail?
Photo Information
"What an unusual juvenile flatfish (Pisces: family Bothidae). It has a strong mimetic resemblance to a flatworm or a nudibranch in its colouration and probably in the way it moves along, so it is no surprise a novice diver or underwater predator would confuse them. "
