Only three species thrived, dominated by the bluestripe snapper, now occupying many of the Hawaiian Islands.

The bluestripe snapper is classified in the genus Lutjanus, which is part of the snapper family Lutjanidae.

The bluestripe snapper is part of an unusual mimicry relationship with the goatfish, Mulloidichthys mimicus, whose colouration nearly exactly matches that of the snapper.

The bluestripe snapper has a varied diet, feeding on fishes, shrimps, crabs, stomatopods, cephalopods and planktonic crustaceans, as well as plant and algal materials.

For example, the yellowfin goatfish (Mulloidichthys vanicolensis) of the Red Sea and Hawaii is often seen congregating with bluestripe snappers (Lutjanus kasmira).
