EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this vibrant underwater snapshot captured by Linda Pitkin, we are transported to the enchanting Lembeh Strait in North Sulawesi, Indonesia. Here, a mesmerizing scene unfolds as a shoal of Banggai Cardinalfish (Pterapogon kauderni) seek refuge amidst the delicate branches of Anchor Coral (Euphyllia ancora). The image showcases nature's harmonious collaboration between species. The cardinalfish find solace within the coral's protective embrace, forming a tight-knit school that exudes unity and strength. Their striking appearance with bold black stripes against their silver bodies adds an extra touch of elegance to this already captivating tableau. As we delve deeper into this aquatic wonderland, it becomes evident that these creatures are not just ordinary fish but rather fascinating representatives of biodiversity hotspot Sulawesi. They belong to the ray-finned fish family known as percomorphi and possess unique characteristics that make them stand out among their peers. This photograph serves as a reminder of the intricate beauty found beneath our oceans' surfaces – an ecosystem teeming with life and color. It invites us to appreciate both its fragility and resilience while urging us to protect these precious habitats for future generations. So take a moment to immerse yourself in Linda Pitkin's breathtaking capture, where tranquility meets vibrancy in an underwater symphony orchestrated by Mother Nature herself!
