Description
Target fish (Terapon jarbua) is an Indo-Pacific marine fish. Its most distinct feature is the pattern of black stripes it uses for camouflage. From the side they are reminiscent of water ripples, but when viewed from above they form concentric circles reminiscent of an archery target. A small amount of commercial fishing occurs, and the meat is sold fresh, salted or dried.
