Endangered Banggai Cardinalfish
The Banggai Islands is home to the Banggai cardinalfish.[4] This species has an extremely limited geographic range (5,500 km2) and small total population size (estimated at 2.4 million). The Banggai cardinalfish is composed of isolated populations concentrated around the shallows of 17 large and 10 small islands within the Banggai Archipelago. It is threatened by extinction due to collection for the aquarium trade.[5]
