Spotted Boxfish They have a box-like exoskeleton. Males are often gold band between eyes; back black to reddish brown or gold; no spots on head. Females are navy blue to black. Uncommon mainland Mexico. Solitary or in pairs. Lurk in shaded, protective recesses in rocky reefs, boulder-strewn slopes and along walls. Around divers they are shy and retreat to protective recesses when approached. Often they will return to peer out were they can be more closely observed. | |
