Akiapolaau & Akepa Aloha Shirt by David Shepard
THE STORY BEHIND THE HAND-DRAWN DESIGN
The ʻŪʻū (Myripristis amaena), commonly known as the Menpachi, Brick Soldierfish, or ‘ū‘ū in Hawaiian, is a striking reef fish easily identified by its pale red to pink coloration with darker red scale margins. Its large eyes, characteristic of nocturnal feeders, and a dark streak behind the operculum distinguish it. These fish typically grow up to almost a foot and are found in groups hiding in caves and under ledges during the day, emerging at night to feed on zooplankton and small crustaceans.
