Vagabond butterflyfish — size comparison — facts and sources

Chaetodon vagabundus has a deep, white body with fine diagonal lines. Black bands across the eye and rear of the body contrast with its yellow fins. It occurs in the Indo-Pacific, from East Africa to the Tuamotu Islands.

It occupies lagoons, reef flats and outer slopes, including places receiving murkier water. It eats algae, coral polyps, crustaceans and worms. Members of a lasting pair may defend a feeding area together against other pairs. The larvae initially swim in open water, later settling in shallow areas with rubble and seagrasses.
