Variegated lizardfish — size comparison — facts and sources

The variegated lizardfish inhabits coastal Indo-Pacific waters. It has an elongated, mottled body, broad mouth and lizard-like head. Camouflage keeps it inconspicuous against reef substrates.

It hunts small fish and shrimps. It usually uses a favourable position near the bottom from which to launch a short attack. A broad, toothed mouth helps seize mobile prey.
