Genicanthus melanospilos (Bleeker, 1857)
Spotbreast angelfish, 18cm

This is another angelfish that has been spotted only relatively deep on the seaward slope. This female was found and photographed by Jay Lord. The male, which was not seen at the time, would have rather close set vertical dark bands.
