The mullet Marauder is a fairly rare fish, found in tropical and subtropical waters around the world. Its scientific name is Lutjanus buccanella, and it's a member of the snapper family. The mullet Marauder typically grows to be about 18 inches long, although some specimens have been known to reach lengths of 24 inches or more. This fish has a body that's shaped somewhat like an oval, with a blunt head and a forked tail. Its scales are large and tough, providing good protection from predators. The mullet Marauder is dark brown or gray in coloration, with lighter-colored spots on its sides. It feeds primarily on small fishes and invertebrates such as crabs and shrimp.
This fish is considered to be of medium abundance in most areas where it's found. However, due to its rarity in some parts of the world (such as Australia), the mullet Marauder is considered to be an important target species for many recreational anglers.
