Summer Flounder (Flounder Fish) - Identification & Habitat Guide #109610 (License: Personal Use)

This illustration depicts a summer flounder (Paralichthys dentatus), a right-eyed flatfish native to the western Atlantic Ocean. Its body is laterally compressed with both eyes on the dorsal side, enabling it to lie camouflaged on sandy or muddy seabeds. The mottled brown coloration and scattered dark spots aid in blending with the ocean floor while hunting small fish and crustaceans.
