cleaner fish imitator
(English) The sabertoothed blenny Aspidontus taeniatus has copied the form, coloration and locomotory behavior of the true cleaner fish, Labroides dimidiatus and profits from the mimicry by biting small pieces out of the skin, the fins and the gills of the fish expecting to be cleaned.
