Pseudanthias Bicolor
''Pseudanthias bicolor'', the bicolor anthias or yellowback basslet is a species of marine ray-finned fish from the subfamily Anthiinae of the family Serranidae, the groupers and sea basses. It is from the Indo-Pacific Ocean. It occasionally makes its way into the aquarium trade. It grows to a size of 13 cm in length. Description ''Pseudanthias bicolor'' has a relatively elongated, laterally compressed body which has a standard length which is around three times its depth. It has a moderately large, oblique, terminal mouth, although in males the thickening of the upper lip causes it to be slightly inferior. The maxilla is level with the rear edge of the eye. The dorsal fin has 10 spines ands 16-18 soft rays while the anal fin contains 3 spines and 7-8 soft rays. The colouration of this species is sexually dimorphic, the males are more intensely coloured having a violet body with a yellow back, the yellow colour continuing on to the upper lobe of the caudal fin and the d ...

Anthiinae
Anthias are members of the family Serranidae and make up the subfamily Anthiinae. Anthias make up a sizeable portion of the population of pink, orange, and yellow reef fishes seen swarming in most coral reef photography and film. The name Anthiidae is preoccupied by a subfamily of ground beetles in the family Carabidae created by Bonelli in 1813 and this grouping should be called the Anthiadinae. However, both the 5th Edition of ''Fishes of the World'' and Fishbase give the Serranid subfamily as "Anthiinae". Anthias are mostly small, thus are quite popular within the ornamental fish trade. They form complex social structures based on the number of males and females and also their position on the reef itself, and are mainly zooplankton feeders. They occur in all tropical oceans and seas of the world. The first species recognized in this group was described in the Mediterranean and northeast Atlantic and was given name ''Anthias anthias'' by Carl Linnaeus in 1758. Anthias can sho ...

Serranidae
The Serranidae are a large family of fishes belonging to the order Perciformes. The family contains about 450 species in 65 genera, including the sea basses and the groupers (subfamily Epinephelinae). Although many species are small, in some cases less than , the giant grouper (''Epinephelus lanceolatus'') is one of the largest bony fishes in the world, growing to in length and in weight. Representatives of this group live in tropical and subtropical seas worldwide. Characteristics Many serranid species are brightly colored, and many of the larger species are caught commercially for food. They are usually found over reefs, in tropical to subtropical waters along the coasts. Serranids are generally robust in form, with large mouths and small spines on the gill coverings. They typically have several rows of sharp teeth, usually with a pair of particularly large, canine-like teeth projecting from the lower jaw. All serranids are carnivorous. Although some species, especially i ...

Anthias (genus)
''Anthias'' is a genus of colourful fishes in the subfamily Anthiadinae. Most species are found at deep reefs in the tropical and subtropical Atlantic, often well below depths reachable to a scuba diver. A single species, ''A. noeli'', is found at deep reefs in the East Pacific. They are red, pink, orange, or yellow, and the largest species reach in length. They typically occur in groups that feed on zooplankton. Species In the past, this genus included far more species, but these have now been moved to other genera, for example '' Callanthias'', '' Odontanthias'', and ''Pseudanthias''. Based on FishBase, these species are currently included in ''Anthias'': * '' Anthias anthias'' (Linnaeus, 1758) swallowtail sea perch * '' Anthias asperilinguis'' Günther, 1859 jeweled gemfish * '' Anthias cyprinoides'' (Katayama & Amaoka, 1986) Pagalu swallowtail * '' Anthias helenensis'' Katayama & Amaoka, 1986 Saint Helena swallowtail * '' Anthias menezesi'' Anderson & Heemstra, 1980 Brazil ...
