Etymology: Pseudochromis: Greek, pseudes = false + Greek, chromis = a fish, perhaps a perch (Ref. 45335); andamanensis: Named for its type locality, Andamen Sea..
Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Ecologia
marino associati a barriera corallina; distribuzione batimetrica 1 - 35 m (Ref. 81967). Tropical
Eastern Indian Ocean: eastern Andaman Sea, Indonesia and North West Shelf of Australia.
Size / Peso / Age
Maturity: Lm ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 7.0 cm TL maschio/sesso non determinato; (Ref. 48635)
Spine dorsali (totale) : 3; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 22 - 25; Spine anali: 3; Raggi anali molli: 13 - 15. This species distinguished by the following characters: 22-25 (usually 24) segmented dorsal-fin rays; 13-15 (usually 14) segmented anal fin rays; 16 circumpeduncular scales; second anal-fin spine much stouter than the third; a distinct bright yellow to orange stripe or series of spots along the base of the dorsal fin (when preserved pale grey to pale brown) (Ref. 81967).
Inhabits coral areas and is relatively common (Ref. 26137). Also found in coastal, lagoon and exposed seaward reefs (Ref 90102).
