Princess Parrotfish. Western Atlantic; Bermuda to Brazil. To
fourteen inches overall length. Juvenile phases with dark border above,
below tail. Initial phases w/ yellowish fins, darkened tail. Terminal
phases w/ broad yellow body stripe fading toward the rear, tail bordered
by pink. Likely the most commonly utilized species (of only a handful)
used in the ornamental trade of this family. Due to better collection,
holding and shipping more arrive in good condition and live. A
