Warty frogfish
Warty frogfish (Antennarius maculatus) on rocks. This fish is coloured and shaped to look like a piece of sponge or rock. This means it can avoid detection by its prey, smaller fish and crustaceans, until it comes close enough to be engulfed suddenly. The warty frogfish inhabits coral reefs in the tropical Indo-Pacific region from the Indian Ocean to Micronesia. It can reach 15 centimetres in length. Photographed in the Andaman Sea, Thailand

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the incredible camouflage abilities of the warty frogfish, a master of disguise in the underwater realm. With its unique coloring and shape resembling a piece of sponge or rock, this cunning predator can seamlessly blend into its surroundings on coral reefs across the tropical Indo-Pacific region. Measuring up to 15 centimeters in length, this particular warty frogfish was captured by Science Photo Library's lens in the enchanting Andaman Sea off Thailand's coast. Its cryptic coloration allows it to remain undetected by unsuspecting prey such as smaller fish and crustaceans until it strikes with lightning speed. The intricate details of this marine creature are beautifully portrayed in this photograph, highlighting its textured skin and distinctive wart-like protrusions that give it its name. The image serves as a testament to nature's ingenuity, showcasing how evolution has equipped these fascinating creatures with survival strategies that have been honed over time. As we admire this snapshot from beneath the waves, we are reminded of the wonders hidden within our oceans and encouraged to appreciate their delicate balance. This print is not just an artistic representation but also a valuable educational tool for those interested in zoology, marine biology, or simply captivated by wildlife photography at its finest.
