[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The Striped Surgeonfish (Acanthurus lineatus) can be easily recognised by its colouration. The upper three-quarters of the head and body are covered with black-edged, blue and yellow stripes. The lower quarter is purple to pale blue.

It has a lunate caudal fin and a long spine on the caudal peduncle.

The Striped Surgeonfish grows to 38 cm in length.

It occurs on exposed coral reefs throughout much of the central and Indo-Pacific.

In Australia it is known from off north-western Western Australia and from the northern Great Barrier Reef, Queensland to northern New South Wales.
