Description
Seahorse The Weedy Seadragon there are two types of seadragons. The Common seadragon is a part of the Phyllopteryx taeniolatus family, the only one of its kind. They are found in central New South Wales around the south coast of Australia to south-western Western Australia.They can grow up to 45cm in length, which is equal to 18in. It is often confused with the leafy seadragon (which I did about 110 times). The difference between the two are one looks a lot leafier than the other. The less leafy one is The Common Seadragon. When you Google The Common Seadragon they both show up. The common seadragon or weedy seadragon is a marine fish related to the seahorses. Adult common seadragons are a reddish colour, with yellow and purple markings; they have small leaf-like appendages that resemble kelp fronds providing camouflage and a number of short spines for protection.
