A dried porcupinefish specimen preserved in an inflated form, with a rounded body covered in long pale spines. Mottled brown and tan skin, a small open mouth, projecting fins and a narrow tail give the specimen a distinctive silhouette for a natural-history or curiosities display. The dried fins and tail show curling and fraying, with irregular skin and spine surfaces visible throughout. The specimen measures approximately 6 inches wide by 8.5 inches long by 5 inches high.
