Blueline Snapper "Lutjanus kasmira"

Blueline Snapper, blueline snapper lutjanus kasmira

The Blueline Snapper, Lutjanus kasmira, (also known as the bluestripe sea perch or the bluestripe snapper) is a common species of marine fish of the snapper family Lutjanidae. The blueline snapper is one of the most widespread of the snappers, inhabiting a range from the Red Sea south to Madagascar and east to India, Asia, Indonesia, Australia and a number of Pacific Islands including Hawaii.

The species is so named due to its distinctive coloration, which consists of a bright yellow body overlain by narrow horizontal electric-blue stripes. The blueline snapper is primarily a reef dweller living in shallow coastal areas to reefs up to 265 m (869 ft) deep, consuming a range of fish, cephalopods and crustaceans. Often schooling while juveniles, the adults tend to be solitary and reach a maximum known length of 40 cm (16 in).

The blueline snapper has a varied diet, feeding on fishes, shrimps, crabs, stomatopods, cephalopods and planktonic crustaceans, as well as plant and algal materials. Diets vary with age, location and the prevalent prey items locally.
