Pseudojuloides cerasinus (Snyder, 1904)
Smalltail wrasse, 10.3cm

This species is uncommon to rare at Kwajalein. The few individuals we have seen were in lagoon Halimeda patches.

Those below appear to be the females. They were both photographed by Jay Lord on the lagoon side of Kwajalein Island. The lower shot has the fins nicely flared out.
