Chaetodontidae (Butterflyfishes) |
|
reef-associated |
Western Indian Ocean: Red Sea, Oman and Gulf of Aden. |
This species is similar to Chaetodon vagabundus except for the following: that the black band running up the rear of the body merges with the black dorsal fin margin and eye band, thus forming a horseshoe mark; the black tail fin bands are replaced by reddish brown bands; and the soft dorsal and anal fins of adults are more pointed (Ref. 58304). |
