Odontanthias fuscipinnis, the Hawaiian deep anthias or Hawaiian yellow anthias, is a species of marine ray-finned fish in the family Anthiadidae. It is endemic to the Hawaiian Islands.[3][4][5]
Description
As a member of the genus Odontanthias, it possesses a deep, compressed body and filamentous extensions on the dorsal and anal fins. Unlike many other anthias species that exhibit strong sexual dimorphism, both males and females of O. fuscipinnis share a similar bright yellow appearance.[6]
Range
This species is found exclusively in the tropical waters of the Central Pacific, specifically around the Hawaiian Islands and Johnston Atoll.[2] It is found at depths ranging from 43 to 260 m (141 to 853 ft).[7]
