Descrição breve
Chaves de identificação | Morfologia | Morfometria
This species is distinguished by the following set of characters: D X-XI,17; A II 14-15, tubed lateral line scales 35-40; differs from A. chrysopterus, by the dorsal fin length (> 58% of SL in A. maohiensis vs. <56% of SL in A. chrysopterus), and using genetics, species can be unambiguously distinguished both with mitochondrial and nuclear genomic markers (reciprocally monophyletic clades). Colouration: when alive, adult with iris dark; body, light orange to dark yellow; two white to bluish bars, with the first behind the eye, the second midbody; all fins are orange (Ref. 137739).
Body shape (shape guide): short and / or deep; Cross section: compressed.
Found usually in association with Radianthus magnifica (= Heteractis magnifica), the magnificent sea anemone, which is also by very far the most common sea anemone in French Polynesia. Other less common sea anemone species may also be found and may be associated with this species, indicating no exclusive association with R. magnifica of this species (Ref. 137739).
