Butterfish (Selenotoca multifasciata) Photographs
and Information
The colouring of a Butterfish
is generally silver, the lips are black edged and the head and
cheeks are tinged a greenish yellow. It has a steeply formed
head, with a snout that protrudes more with age. The body
carries vertical bars that fade near the belly.
The Butterfish inhabits brackish mangrove estuaries and
freshwater streams. Its diet
consists of small crabs, prawns and weeds.
It is a good food fish which must be handled carefully as the dorsal spines can inflict
a venomous sting that is very painful, though not fatal.
