Re: Panda Puffer?
I would guess that puffer is a type of dogface .... but that's just my guess.

Re: Panda Puffer?
Yes that one is a Panda Puffer or Masked Puffer as they are sometimes called. They are found in the waters off of Australia.

Re: Panda Puffer?
This is Arothron diadematus, a close relative of A. nigropunctatus.
It comes from almost exclusively from the Red Sea.
The ones from Australia are normal A. nigropunctatus with a less prominent mask than Arothron diadematus.
Panda puffer as well as Masked puffer are two common names used for Arothron diadematus.

Re: Panda Puffer?
I remember seeing these puffers traveling in packs, when diving in the Red Sea. Bob Fenner was joking with me about "schooling puffers".
