The blue-striped snapper is a fish from the tropical waters of East Africa (Mozambique, South Africa, Madagascar and the islands of Réunion and Mayotte), where it lives in coral reefs between 10 and 50 m deep. It measures an average of 20 cm. The color of its body deteriorates: brownish on its back, it becomes yellowish-white on its belly, with a series of 6 thin blue lines (which earned it its vernacular name). We can observe a blackish spot on the lateral line below the anterior part of the soft rays of its dorsal fin.
