Polyprion americanus

solitary

carnivorous

This predator lives in rocky areas, generally at depths of up to 600 meters. Endangered, this species is vulnerable to overfishing due to its slow growth and late maturation, with declining populations observed in areas such as Brazil, Bermuda, and the Azores. Conservation efforts are crucial to protect this species, particularly through fisheries regulation and the protection of essential marine habitats for their survival.
