Etymology: Benthochromis: Greek, benthos = depth of the sea + Greek, chromis = a fish, perhaps a perch (Ref. 45335); horii: Named for M. Hori of Kyoto University, Japan, the first to identify this fish as an undescribed species (Ref. 74417).
Eponymy: Professor Dr Michio Hori is a fish ecologist at Kyoto University, Japan. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Short description
पहचान कुंजी | आकृति विज्ञान | मौरफोमैटरिक्स
पृष्ठीय रीढ़ (सम्पूर्ण) : 17 - 19; पृष्ठीय सौफट रेज़ (सम्पूर्ण) : 11 - 13; गुदा कांटा: 3; ऐनल सौफट रेज़: 9 - 11; जानवरों की रीड़ का जोड़: 36 - 38. This species is distinguished by the following: eyes relatively small and snout relatively long (eye length usually shorter than snout length, 86.7-105% of snout length), number of dorsal fin rays relatively high (total number of spines and soft rays in dorsal fin usually 30 or 31). Large males (>117.2 mm LS) with long pelvic fin (>30% of standard length LS), a distinct pearl-grey longitudinal line through the upper end of the pectoral fin base, and without a black large blotch on nape (Ref. 74417).
Occurs at depths from 60 to 126 m (Ref. 74417).
