Ocean Puffer – クマサカフグ

Ocean Puffer (Lagocephalus lagocephalus) クマサカフグ – size 61cm
This small puffer I found inside a Mahimahi. I think that it is a juvenile Ocean Puffer (Lagocephalus lagocephalus). They are pelagic tropical puffers found around the world. They can reach 61cm. This one is much smaller than my hand. Kauai 2004
