Apogon kallopterus Bleeker
Apogon kallopterus Bleeker, 1856b:33–34 [type-locality: Celebes Manado].
Apogon snyderi Jordan and Evermann, 1903:180–181 [type-localities: Hawaii, Honolulu, and Hilo].
Apogon frenatus yaeyamaensis Aoyagi, 1943:79–80, fig. 19 [type-locality: Ryukyu Islands, Ishigaki Island].
DIAGNOSIS.—A single dark stripe from snout through eye on middle of body not tapering in width to a round basicaudal spot above lateral line; pectoral rays usually 13; gillrakers on lower arch usually 14; circumpeduncular scales usually 14.
DESCRIPTION.—Important morphometric and meristic characters are treated in Tables 1–3. For general shape and pigment pattern see Figures 3 and 4. Proportions (as percent standard length): body depth 30–40; head length 39–42; eye length 11–14; snout length 9–13; bony interorbital width 7–8; upper jaw length 17–20; caudal peduncle depth 13–17; caudal peduncle length 23–28; dorsal spine lengths—first 3–5, second 11–13, third 17–21, fourth 16–21, spine in second dorsal 13–15; anal spine lengths—first 2–3, second 13–14; pectoral fin length 23–26; pelvic fin length 21–26.
Second dorsal fin I, 9; 2 anal spines; pectoral fin usually 13 (rarely 14); pelvic fin I, 5; well-developed gillrakers, 10–14 (2 upper rakers + 8 to 12 lower rakers); including rudiments 17–20 (2 to 3 rudiments + 2 rakers on upper arch; 8 to 12 rakers + 2 to 6 rudiments on lower arch); pored lateral-line scales 23–25; transverse scale rows above the lateral line 2; median predorsal scales 4–6; circumpeduncular scales 12–14 (5 + 2 + 5 to 7).
COLOR OF PRESERVED SPECIMENS.—The salient color pattern consists of a dark horizontal stripe on the midbody from snout to base of caudal fin where it just touches the lower portion of a round, dark, basicaudal spot. Head and trunk light dusky to tan, some specimens darker; lateral stripe usually dark brown, its width about one-half diameter of eye and extends from tip on snout on side of head to behind middle of eye and posteriorly along middle of trunk to midbase of caudal fin; stripe well developed in young and juveniles, but sometimes obscure in adults; spot at base of caudal fin usually conspicuous, circular to oval, and located above but touching lateral line in young to adults; a diffuse, faint dark brown band encircles base of caudal fin, passing through spot; a diffuse dark brown blotch at base of soft dorsal fin sometimes present; membrane between first and second spine of first dorsal fin, upper half of membrane between second and third spines, and upper third between third and fourth spines brownish black, remainder of fin dusky to pale; second dorsal fin with a row of brown spots on membranes just above and parallel to base forming a narrow stripe; another group of dark spots on membranes near center of second dorsal fin, in an irregular row, and sometimes merging with basal stripe; remainder of second dorsal fin transparent to dusky; outer two rays of caudal fin with a brownish streak, remainder of fin dusky to pale; anal fin with a brownish black stripe near base and parallel with it, remainder of fin pale; pectoral fins transparent; membranes of outer two rays of pelvic fins brownish, the remainder pale. Brownish band encircling base of caudal fin darker and more intensely developed in specimens from the Red Sea and the Line Islands.
COLOR IN LIFE.—Burgess and Axelrod (1975, figs. 82–84) show living coloration in color photographs.
LIFE HISTORY.—One specimen (82 mm SL) from Apia, Samoa, CAS 19846, and 2 specimens (80, 81) from Makyan Island, Celebes (Nov 1909) USNM 171966 and 171870, have egg masses in their mouth. Apogon kallopterus occurs in a wide array of habitats from tide pools to deep reef environments at depths to about 60 m.
GEOGRAPHIC DISTRIBUTION.—The extensive distribution of A. kallopterus is shown in Figure 5. This map is based on specimens that we examined. Literature records show even more extensive distributions than our map. No specimens have been reported from the Eastern Pacific coast of North and South America.
DISTRIBUTION.—Known from the Red Sea and Comoro Islands and Cocos- Keeling Atolls, Indian Ocean, and widespread in the central and western Pacific Ocean (Figure 2). Based on material that we have examined, A. exostigma is absent in the central Indian Ocean.
