条纹箱鲀 土康贝西群岛 印度尼西亚 图片故事:鲀类身体臃肿,速度很慢。但是它们的特点是可以瞬间让自己的身体吸水膨胀好几倍,配合身上坚硬的鳞片和刺,令捕食者“无从下口”。比如他的兄弟河豚、刺魨,都各有千秋。 高清壁纸:英文注释:Striped Boxfish, Tukangbesi Islands, Indonesia, 2005 A dizzying array of dots and squiggles decorates a striped boxfish (Ostracion solorensis) gliding by a coral reef near Indonesia's Tukangbesi Islands.
