	Stonefish - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The stonefish (Synanceia verrucosa, Bloch and Schneider, 1801), also known as the reef stonefish or dornorn, is a carnivorous ray-finned fish with venomous spines that lives on the sea bed, camouflaged as a rock.
		It is the most widespread species of the stonefishes family, and is known to be found in the shallow tropical marine waters of the Pacific and Indian oceans, ranging from the Red Sea to the Queensland Great Barrier Reef.

		In contrast, the stonefish, while still possessing highly venomous spines, is named for its rough, rocklike appearance, which helps to camouflage the fish in its rocky habitat.
		A stonefish inhabits shallow coral reef areas and the rocky temperate waters of the Indo-Pacific.
		The camouflage of the stonefish allows it to blend in with the bottom of a reef area, where it waits motionlessly for prey to pass by.
