Amblyglyphidodon leucogaster
(Bleeker
1847), the White- or Yellowbelly Damselfish. Quite variable in appearance, as evidenced in its multiple common names, the
Yellow/Whitebelly Damsel may well be two distinct species… The Indo-West
Pacific (Melanesia, Micronesia, Ryukyus to the GBR) form separate from the
eastern Africa into Red Sea one. Both are beautiful and aquarium-desirable
varieties, found on reef slopes, passages and lagoons. This species too is a
generalized zooplanktivore, feeding on crustaceans (copepods, mysids, amphipods,
other crustacean larvae), fish eggs, and some algae. |
