Pseudobalistes naufragium
Description
Pseudobalistes naufragium (Jordan & Starks, 1895).
Blunthead Triggerfish or Stone Triggerfish. To 1 m (39.4 in) TL (Allen and Robertson 1994). Bahía Almejas (24°22.7’N, 111°42.6’W), southern Baja California (Personal communication: Scripps Institution of Oceanography Fish Collection, La Jolla, California) to Chile (Pequeño 1989), including Gulf of California (Robertson and Allen 2015), and Islas Galápagos (Grove and Lavenberg 1997). Marine and brackish waters (Romero-Berny 2018); benthic; depth: 0.6–100 m (2–328 ft) (min.: Personal communication: Scripps Institution of Oceanography Fish Collection, La Jolla, California; max.: Amezcua Linares 1996). Extensive molecular analyses of the species in the family Balistidae strongly suggests that this species should be called Balistes naufragium Jordan and Starks, 1895 (McCord and Westneat 2016).
