Parioglossus galzini Williams & Lecchini, 2004 |
Parioglossus galzini is a species of dartfish. Presently it is only known from the island of Rapa Iti, French Polynesia.
This tiny fish (standard length up to 25 mm) is found in shallow inshore waters. It can be distinguished from its congeners in several ways, most notably by the complete absence of a dark lateral stripe and the presence of a membrane linking the two dorsal fins in both sexes.
