The prickly leather-jacket has two erectile dorsal spines. Its dorsal, anal and caudal fin are translucent but only the rays are a bit darker and visible. FeedingThe prickly leather-jacket mainly feeds on algaes and small marine invertebrates. BehaviorThe prickly leather-jacket is solitary and has a diurnal activity. References1. ^Matsuura, K.
