In the first closeup, notice the soft part of the dorsal fin, with the small, dark-edged oval orange spots from which anal fin non-ocellated
egg-dummies are believed to have evolved; from these, in turn, ocellated egg-dummies surrounded by a depigmented area are derived. Also,
note the orange streaks on the caudal fin, mostly between the fin's rays, quite striking against the pale blue background color of the fin and
markedly different from the oval spots of the dorsal fin. [ eng ] |
