    Great picture, my first impression was that it was an insect of some kind. Silly me. It's handsome and mysterious. Great shot. Posted 13 years ago

The Spinyhead Blenny

The spinyhead blenny is a member of the blenny family native to the Pacific ocean. It has a mottled black, white and red coloration over the entire body, which is rather elongated. As with most blennies, the head of this animal has small hair-like appendages over the eyes, which are large and red. It ranges in size from 0.75 inches to 1.5 inches in length.
