Resumo: Camouflage is one of the strategies of reef fishes, in which they mimic other species or use the background to match the combination of their colors and textures (Randall 2005).

The present record is the first description of camouflage by the sea horse Hippocampus reidi Ginsburg, 1933 with plastic debris in mangroves from NE Brazil: Formoso River, Tamandaré, Pernambuco State (8°41′01.51″S, 35°06′25.92″ W).
