Dragon or Leopard Moray Eel Enchelycore pardalis occurs in the tropial Indo-Pacific from Reunion to the Hawaiian, Line and Society islands, north to southern Japan and southern Korea, south to New Caledonia in a depth range from 5 to 60m, max. length 92cm. The species is very rarely observed in the Society Islands archipelago, but more frequently at the foot of the Marquesan cliffs. It is a critical species confined to rocky coastal areas. The posterior nostrils are enlarged and often mistaken for horns. When disturbed, Dragon Moray quickly adopts a threatening posture with its dorsal fin raised and jaws wide open. The species is generally encountered solitary, occasionally in pairs. Today, this moray eel is still used in traditional Marquesan medicine (after cooking), particularly in the treatment of certain skin conditions.
