Although
this species of wobbegong can reach a length of 3m, the ones
around Julian Rocks are all very small and it might even be
a sub-species. Dark bands run accross its body and like other
wobbegongs it is covered by mottled browns, greens and greys.
The bodypattern is very different from the spotted wobbegong,
which is also common around the rock and the two can be easily
distinguished.
