EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Dave King showcases the mesmerizing beauty of a Spiny Boxfish (Chilomycterus spinosus), also known as a Porcupinefish or Burrfish. The image captures the front view of this unique creature, highlighting its vibrant yellow coloration and intricate markings. The Spiny Boxfish belongs to the family Diodontidae and is classified under Osteichthyes, which includes bony fish.

Its exotic appearance combined with its colorful nature makes it an enchanting subject for any photography enthusiast or admirer of marine life. As we delve into the world of ichthyology through this photograph, we can't help but marvel at the wonders that lie beneath our oceans. This image serves as a reminder of how diverse and awe-inspiring our planet's wildlife truly is. Dave King's skillful capture allows us to bring a piece of this underwater world into our own homes, providing us with an opportunity to admire and learn more about these magnificent creatures from afar.
