In the past month, another anemonefish has been described from Fiji. It has been given the name Amphiprion barberi. This fish has long been considered a color form of Amphiprion melanopus, an anemonefish that is known to range from Bali to the Society Islands, north to the Marianas, and south to the Great Barrier Reef and New Caledonia. But after further investigation by pomacentrid-guru, Dr. Gerald Allen, this supposed variant has been raised to species status. Here is the abstract from the publication:
Amphiprion barberi, a new species of anemonefish fish, is described from 46 specimens, 16.3-85.8 mm SL, collected at depths of 2-10 m from coral reefs of Fiji, Tonga, and Samoa. It is closely allied to A. melanopus, which is widely distributed in the western Pacific. The two species exhibit significant colour-pattern differences, including a mainly reddish orange body in A. barberi and dark brown or blackish body in A. melanopus. Adults of the new species also possess fewer spinules (11-19 versus 19-26) in the upper-opercular series than A. melanopus. Genetic data presented here confirms the separation of these species.

以下是我大略的翻譯~~~
近幾個月以來發現的新品種，由Dr. Gerald Allen發現，採取的46個樣本中，體長介於1.63-8.58cm，採集於水深2-10m的斐濟、東加（西南太平洋群島國）和薩摩亞（西南太平洋的一群島 ）珊瑚礁區域，與同樣生活在西太平洋的Amphiprion melanopus有近親關係，兩者主要不同在於A.barberi 帶紅橘色的身體而A.melanopus則是黑褐色或黑色的身體，成熟的A.barberi 在鰓蓋上有著較少的小刺（11-19 versus19-26），遺傳學由這裡證實牠們是不同種
我在外國網站上有看到在賣
一隻要價14.99美金~~~
換算過來大約五、六百快跑不掉
我想如果販售到台灣應該會破一、兩千以上吧!!
總而言之~~~
外國的資訊真的比較多~
以後一定要出國見見世面 !!(^^~
