Deskripsieng
Colour of TP (Fig. 2 A, B): olive with a dark-edged blue vertical line on each scale of body (except on thorax, abdomen, and nape where the blue segments are shorter and variously oriented); head with irregular, narrow, darkedged, blue bands and a broad blue band across anterior interorbital space; many individuals with a broad light green bar on side centred on sixth dorsal spine, the area anterior to this and the region of the nape coloured reddish to reddish-brown; dorsal and anal fins reddish with broad margins and basal stripes of bright blue, the dorsal with a median band of small dark-edged blue spots and the anal with one or two blue stripes in middle of fin; caudal fin reddish with prominent blue margins and blue stripes along rays, but with an upper and lower zone of fin largely free of blue; an orange or orange-brown blue-edged bar at pectoral base, the upper portion of which is blackish. Colin & Bell (1991) report during courtship of Anampses caeruleopunctatus the blue band between the eyes and around the mouth, and the single light green bar on the body of the male became brighter.
