Hypoplectrus Providencianus
The masked hamlet (''Hypoplectrus providencianus'') is a species of marine ray-finned fish, a sea bass from the subfamily Serraninae which is part of the family Serranidae, which also includes the groupers and anthias. This species is found in the western Atlantic Ocean in the Caribbean Sea and has been recorded from the coast of Central America from Quintana Roo in Mexico to Bocas del Toro in Panama and from Jamaica to Puerto Rico, as well as in the Turks and Caicos and the Cayman Islands. Its specific name refers to Providencia Island, Colombia where the type was collected. It was also recorded from other islands in the Archipelago of San Andrés, Providencia and Santa Catalina. (English Abstract) They are a unique species in the ''Hypoplectrus'' genus, defined by their unique color morph. Their behavior is largely similar to that of other hamlets, especially in their diet and egg-trading spawning patterns. Anatomy and Morphology ''H. providencianus'' can reach lengths ...

Hypoplectrus Gummigutta
''Hypoplectrus gummigutta'', commonly called the golden hamlet, is a species of marine ray-finned fish. They are sea bass from the subfamily Serraninae and the greater family Serranidae, which also includes the groupers and anthias. The golden hamlet was first described in 1852 by zoologist Felipe Poey (1799-1891) as ''Plectropoma gummigutta'' before being given its accepted name: ''Hypoplectrus gummigutta.'' It is found in the western Atlantic Ocean and occasionally makes its way into the aquarium trade. Description The golden hamlet is morphologically similar to all other hamlets. It has a laterally compressed head with a short snout and a straight forehead. The single dorsal fin has 14–17 rays. It has long pelvic fins and a slightly forked caudal fin. The head, body, and fins are golden-yellow. On the head, there are typically one or more possibly large dark spots bordered by iridescent blue.Domeier, Michael L.

Hypoplectrus Guttavarius
The shy hamlets (''Hypoplectrus guttavarius'') are small Western Atlantic serranids of the genus Hypoplectrus, which belong to the subclass perciformes in the class Actinopterygii (ray-finned fishes). To this date, seventeen species of the genus have been recognized, a third of which have been discovered in the past few years. They are synchronous hermaphrodites; ecologically and morphologically, all are remarkably similar in major features except for their color pattern which is how they are differentiated into different species. The name is derived from its personality because they are solitary species that travel in pairs. They are mostly found in the Western Atlantic Ocean on Caribbean inshore areas in low depths (3-30 m) and in temperatures of about 22-27 ºC (72-80 ºF). Hamlets are small and bright colored, specifically, shy hamlets have a yellow head and fins followed by a brown-black body. In addition, there are bright blue stripes around the eye and on the snout. They a ...
