RFR811T9–I found this shoal of yellowfin barracuda (Sphyraena flavicauda: 30 cms.) underneath a moored boat at Marsa Nakari in southern Egypt. They did not appear to be discommoded by my presence and I was able to insert myself in the middle of the shoal and stay with them for some considerable time. This is one of the smallest species of barracuda and can be seen on the seaward side of reefs in the Indo-West Pacific regions; also in the Mediterranean having travelled there through the Suez Canal. The common name is derived from the fact that there is a small yellow patch at the base of the caudal fin.

RFM5KGP2–This is a picture of a thorny seahorse (Hippocampus histrix: 10 cms.). The IUCN Red List indicates that it is vulnerable. It is found in the Indo-West Pacific, usually near sponges and soft corals. In common with other seahorse species, it is threatened because of over-fishing (it becomes trawl bycatch), pollution and coastal development. For protection, the bodies of all seahorses are covered with bony plates. In this instance, many of these plates are overlaid with an encrustation of white bryozoans, which helps to camouflage the animal. Photographed in northern Sulawesi waters, Indonesia.

The thoracic appendages take the form of robust legs. The species is said to have interesting pre-copulatory courtship rituals which, sadly, I have never had the privilege of witnessing.

They are voracious predators, catching smaller fish with bursts of speed which can be in excess of 40 km/h. Their fearsome appearance results to them having a dangerous reputation but, as in the case of sharks, they present little or no threat to divers. They have a wide distribution in the tropical and subtropical waters of the Atlantic and Indo-West Pacific regions. Juveniles usually form substantial schools, while adults are solitary.
