Fan-Bellied Leatherjacket
The Fan-Bellied Leatherjacket is a tropical species of leatherjacket that is commonly found in Sydney. It's not too fussy about the water quality so it can be found all over the place, even right up the estuaries.
This leatherjacket usually comes in XXL - it's one of the largest leatherjackets around. It has an extra baggy flap that makes it easy to spot. It may not be the coolest looking leatherjacket in Sydney, but it is definitely one of the most popular.
