Histrio [Histrio]

Description

Histrio, commonly known as sargassumfish, inhabit floating seaweed rafts, particularly sargassum. They are superbly adapted to this unique environment, with their weed-like appearance providing perfect camouflage. Sargassumfish are ambush predators, feeding on small fish and invertebrates that seek refuge in the seaweed.
