About Blue Striped Grunt
The blue striped grunt or bluestriped grunt, is a subtropical species of grunt native to the western Atlantic Ocean. It was described by the English naturalist George Shaw in 1803. Its common name comes from its blue stripes and from its habit of grunting by grinding its pharyngeal teeth.
