Length at first maturity / Size / Weight / umur
Maturity: Lm ?, range 24 - ? cm
Max length : 40.0 cm SL jantan/; (Ref. 3503); common length : 27.0 cm TL jantan/; (Ref. 5450); Berat maksimum terpublikasi: 2.4 kg (Ref. 11441)
Duri punggung (Keseluruhan (total)): 12 - 14; duri punggung lunak (Keseluruhan (total)): 5-7; Duri dubur 3; Sirip dubur lunak: 5 - 6. Colors matching surroundings and extremely well-camouflaged (Ref. 48635). Pelvic and anal fins spines are similarly developed. 12-14 stout grooved spines, each with a large venom sack at its base (Ref. 37816).
Most widespread stonefish (Ref. 4313). Found on sandy or rubble areas of reef flats and shallow lagoons and in small pools during low tide well camouflaged among the substrate and sometimes even covered with algae (Ref. 5213, 5503). Solitary species (Ref. 37816). Feeds on fishes and crustaceans. The dorsal fin has 2 grooves serving as seringes of venom; their stings are excruciatingly painful and can occasionally be fatal. A serum exists which is effective if applied immediately after the infliction. World's most venomous fish (Ref. 37816). Uncommon in markets. In Hong Kong live fish markets (Ref. 27253). Also Ref. 57406.
