Longnose hawkfish, like this brightly patterned creature resting in a bed of soft coral off Fiji Island's Namena Island, are tropical marine fish known for their needle-like snouts and striking red-and-white scales. The fish's common name originates from its hawklike habit of perching on the high ground of reefs, where it surveys ts surroundings for predator or prey.
這是斐濟群島的納梅納島(Namena Island)海域,一條顏色鮮艷的長鼻鷹魚正棲息在軟珊瑚群中。長鼻鷹魚屬于熱帶海洋魚類,以其針狀的鼻子以及紅白色的鱗屑而著名。鷹魚的名字,則是因為他們的習性有點像鷹,習慣呆在珊瑚暗礁的高處,一方面四處尋找獵物,另一方面則在防范捕獵者。
