The Brazilian snapper is a marine predatory fish from the snapper family. It lives on coral reefs off the coast of Brazil and hunts small animals.
The Brazilian snapper differs from related species by its special pattern on the head and sides. It plays an important role in the reef ecosystem as a predator that controls the population of small animals.
