Fowlerichthys scriptissimus

Fowlerichthys scriptissimus[1] is a species of fish in the family Antennariidae. It is native to the Indo-West Pacific, where it occurs in rocky areas of coastal coral reefs at a depth range of 73 to 185 m (240 to 607 ft). It is an oviparous species that reaches and reportedly may exceed 28 cm (11 in) SL.[2] On March 28, 2012, an individual measuring 29.1 cm (11.5 in) SL was collected off the coast of Jejudo, marking the first record of this species from Korean waters.[3]
