“…It is notable that P. purpuralepis has some scales associated with the whitish pink stripes or blotches on the dorsum in fresh condition that turned purple when preserved in formalin and ethanol (Figs 2, 6A). Tea et al (2018Tea et al ( , 2019 reported that some labrids, Cirrhilabrus wakanda Tea et al, 2019, Cirrhilabrus blatteus Springer & Randall, 1974, and Cirrhilabrus earlei Randall & Pyle, 2001, have purple scales after preservation. However, their scales are purple in color when alive originally and the color is retained after preservation.…”

A new species of Plectranthias Bleeker is described on the basis of 16 specimens collected from northern Taiwan. The new species, Plectranthias purpuralepis sp. nov. can be distinguished from its congeners in having pectoral and pelvic fins mostly covered with small scales, some white scales on dorsum turn purple when preserved, and the following combination of characters: dorsal-fin elements X, 16–17; 3rd dorsal-fin spine longest; pectoral-fin rays 14, all branched except for uppermost simple ray; principal caudal-fin rays 9+8; pored lateral-line scales 33–36; 6 diagonal rows of large scales on cheek; circumpeduncular scales 14; ca. 7 rows of large predorsal scales, 2 irregular rows of small scales extending to a line through posterior nostrils; no scales on maxilla and chin; posterior margin of preopercle serrated, ventral margin with 2 antrorse spines; and the greatest body depth 2.9–3.0 in SL.

“…Some species of labrids, for example, are readily separated on the basis of coloration and morphological characters, but are otherwise indistinguishable with standard mitochondrial markers such as COI (Allen, Erdmann, & Dailami, ; Ramon, Lobel, & Sorenson, ; Tea, Senou, & Greene, ). Even amongst allopatric, morphologically distinct members of the same complex, genetic divergence in COI can be as low as 1.5% (Tea, Frable, & Van Der Wal, ). In these cases, the species can be referred to as “phenovariant” (Victor, ).…”

The geographic distributions of marine fishes have been shaped by ancient vicariance and ongoing dispersal events. Some species exhibit anti‐equatorial distributions, inhabiting temperate regions on both sides of the tropics while being absent from equatorial latitudes. The perciform fish Microcanthus strigatus (the stripey) exhibits such a distribution with disjunct populations occurring in East Asia, Hawaii, Western Australia, and the southwest Pacific. Here, we examine the historical biogeography and evolutionary history of M. strigatus, based on more than 80 specimens sampled from the four major populations. We analysed 36 morphological characters, three mitochondrial markers, and two sets of 7,120 and 12,771 single‐nucleotide polymorphisms from the nuclear genome. Our results suggest that M. strigatus represents a cryptic species complex comprising at least two genetically distinct populations worthy of species‐level recognition, with one population exhibiting strong genetic structuring but with intermittent, historical gene flow. We provide evidence for a southwest Pacific origin for the ancestral Microcanthus and explain how past connectivity between these regions might have given rise to the relationships observed in present‐day marine fauna. Our ancestral range reconstructions and molecular‐clock analyses support a southwest Pacific centre of origin for Microcanthus, with subsequent colonization of Western Australia through the Bass Strait followed by transequatorial dispersals to the Northern Hemisphere during the Pleistocene. Our results detail an anti‐tropical dispersal pattern that is highly unusual and previously undocumented, thereby emphasizing the importance of integrative systematics in the evaluation of widespread species.

“…The phenomenon was first noted by Springer & Randall (1974) in C. blatteus, and later again by Randall (1995) in C. rubrisquamis sensu lato and C. sanguineus. Randall (1999) also made note of bone purpling in the opercle of the lesser known Pseudocheilinus dispilus Randall ,1999, and in fin rays and spines of some (but not all) individuals of P. ocellatus Randall, 1999. Tea et al (2018, 2019 reported purple craniofacial bones and scales for C. earlei (Fig.…”

“…Although a comprehensive taxonomic treatment of the genus is lacking, systematic studies have been done in parts. These include diagnoses of species complexes (see Tea et al 2016;Walsh et al 2017;Tea & Gill 2017;Tea et al 2018;Tea et al 2020), taxonomic revisions (Victor 2016;Tea et al 2021a), and molecular phylogenomic studies (Tea et al 2021b). The need for a generic revision of Cirrhilabrus is made clear by the rapidly growing body of literature in recent years, with the number of valid species now exceeding that of any other labrid genus.…”

Conniella apterygia is redescribed from re-examination of the holotype, two paratypes, and six additional specimens. The genus is closely allied to Cirrhilabrus, sharing similarities in general morphological and meristic details, but is separated from Cirrhilabrus and most other labrid fishes in lacking pelvic fins and a pelvic girdle. Recent molecular phylogenetic studies have provided strong evidence for the deep nesting of Conniella within Cirrhilabrus, contradicting its generic validity and suggesting that the loss of pelvic elements is autapomorphic. Consequently, the species is redescribed and assigned to the genus Cirrhilabrus, as Cirrhilabrus apterygia new combination. The pelvic morphologies of related cirrhilabrin labrids are discussed, and a new synapomorphy is identified for Paracheilinus.
