Description Epinephelus corallicola is a fairly widespread, reef species that is naturally uncommon throughout its
range. There are no directed fisheries, but it is occasionally caught and marketed. There is no evidence
of population declines and no known major threats; therefore, it is listed as Least Concern. The change
in status from the previous assessment reflects an improved application of the Red List categories and
criteria, as well as a better understanding of available data.
