Nineteen species of the serranid fish genus Pseudanthias
Bleeker are recognized in the western Indian Ocean
(including the Red Sea and Persian Gulf ): Pseudanthias
bicolor, P. bimaculatus, P. bimarginatus, P. connelli, P. conspicuus,
P. cooperi, P. evansi, P. gibbosus, P. heemstrai,
P. hypselosoma, P. ignitus, P. lunulatus, P. marcia, P. pulcherrimus,
P. squamipinnis, P. taeniatus, P. townsendi, P. unimarginatus
and Pseudanthias pillai sp. nov. is described
from the south-west coast of India. Pseudanthias gibbosus
(Klunzinger) is resurrected from the synonymy of
P. squamipinnis and is shown to have a precocious male
morph. Discovery of three colour morphs for P. gibbosus is
an example of the complicated reproductive systems of
these species. Diagnoses, distributions, illustrations and a
key to all the species of Pseudanthias in the western Indian
Ocean are given.
