Smooth Toadfish - Tetractenos glaber

Smooth Toadfish - Tetractenos glaber (Fréminville, 1813) [more of this species]

 

This is the most common species of pufferfish in South-eastern Australia. It can be identified by its red eyes, smooth skin and the spotting pattern on its back. This consists of regular sized spots all over with larger spots forming vertical strips on its back. Its tail is clear to yellowish with an orange or at least a yellower lower third.
