Solomon Islands, 1998
The Blackmargined Damsel, Pomacentrus nigromarginatus, was regularly collected in stations of 20m or greater in depth. It is easily recognised by the grey background colour with darker scale margins; by the dark border on the caudal (tail) fin; and by the large black spot on the pectoral fin base.
The 7cm long Blackmargined Damsel in the image was collected in the Reef Islands Group, Solomon Islands.
