    Scarus vetula are a large contributor to the production of sand through their digestion of corals. They are also believed to be a major reef attraction (Wheeler, 1975). Scarus vetula have become one of the most important biological factors in the erosion of coral reefs.
    Scarus vetula are found in the tropical coral reefs of the Caribbean and are, therefore, restricted to relatively shallow water (Boschung, 1983). Scarus vetula have four rows of scales on their cheeks. They have no longitudinal band on their head or body, but a red band near the edge of the caudal fin is present (Breder, 1929).
    Scarus vetula are mostly found in small schools of 3 - 4 females and a supermale. They are not strong swimmers so they scull themselves along with their pectoral fins (Lythgoe, 1992). S. vetula are only active during the day.
    Scarus vetula are active diurnal herbivores. They scrape algae, preferably turf algae, that is on flat surfaces and coral from coral reefs with their unique beak (Bruggemann, 1994). S. vetula crushes the coral and algae mixture finely in the pharyngeal mill, and the indigestible sand is excreted (Wheeler, 1975).
