Humpback batfish - Platax batavianus


Based on a tip our guide received, we headed to the base of a sandy slope, and with little more than a single crinoid to hide behind, found a juvenile Platax batavianus. We had seen this stunning little batfish species only once before in 2013 where we were lucky to see several off beaches near Tulamben. 4 inches (10cm)
