Senegalese frogfish
Due to its appearance, the bizarre Senegalese frogfish, Fowlerichthys senegalensis (Lophiiformes - Antennariidae), [Syn. Antennarius senegalensis], may well go unnoticed in the seabed and be mistaken for a piece of coral, being discovered only when moving or finding his dark eyes.
This fish is restricted to the coastal waters of tropical West Africa, from Morocco to Angola.
