"Qi'ra? You look like a hungry needlegawp, opening and closing your mouth like that."
Han, to Qi'ra[3]

Needlegawps were a species of black-eyed scalefin fish with several varieties, including the silver-colored sleek needlegawp and the green-spotted, yellow-skinned speckled needlegawp. The fish were found in the oceans of the planets Corellia[1] and Ahch-To.[2] On the former, needlegawps were caught and sold in the fishmarkets of Coronet City.[1] In around 34 ABY,[4] the Lanai Caretakers had one sleek needlegawp and one speckled needlegawp strung up on a drying rack in the Jedi village on Ahch-To when the Jedi Rey fired a blaster through the wall of the village hut she was staying in.[2]

Behind the scenes[]
