Richard Winterbottom: A new species of the genus Trimma (Percomorpha; Gobiidae) from Helen Reef, South-West Islands of Palau, pp. 109-116

Abstract
A new species of the genus Trimma is described based on 41 specimens from the southern tip of Helen Reef, SW Islands of Palau. Trimma hotsarihiensis n. sp. is characterized by the absence of scales in the predorsal midline, no cheek or opercular scales, a broad U-shaped interorbital trough and a slit-like postorbital trench, a fleshy ridge, the dermal crest, in the dorsal midline extending from the first spine of the dorsal fin and decreasing in height anteriorly, reaching to a vertical above the vertical limb of the preopercle, no elongate dorsal spines, usually 9 dorsal-fin rays, 17 pectoral-fin rays with 6-12 of the inner rays branched, and an unbranched fifth pelvic-fin ray. When freshly collected, T. hotsarihiensis is yellow with small yellow spots on the caudal fin, a black basal stripe in the dorsal and anal fins bordered distally by an approximately equalwidth yellow stripe in the dorsal fins and rest of anal fin yellow, a short, diffuse, irregular dark stripe extending posteriorly from immediately above the opercle, and a dark, pupilwidth, internal band extending along the midline from the occipital region, tapering out at the end of the caudal peduncle. Preserved specimens are straw-yellow, with the dark external stripes in the dorsal and anal fins and above the opercle, and, usually, the dark internal bar, still visible. Trimma hotsarihiensis is currently known only from Helen Reef just north of the equator in the western Pacific Ocean.

Scope

aqua is an international journal which publishes original scientific articles in the fields of systematics, taxonomy, bio-geography, ethology, ecology, and general biology of fishes since 1994. Papers on freshwater, brackish, and marine fishes will be considered. aqua is fully refereed and aims at publishing manuscripts within 2-4 months of acceptance. In view of the importance of colour patterns in species identification and animal ethology, authors are encouraged to submit colour illustrations in addition to descriptions of coloration. It is our aim to provide the international scientific community with an efficiently published journal meeting high scientific and technical standards.

Call for Papers

The editors welcome the submission of original manuscripts which should be sent in digital format to the scientific editor. 
Full length research papers and short notes will be considered for publication. There are no page charges and colour illustrations will be published free of charge. Authors will receive one free copy of the issue in which their paper is published and an e-print in PDF format.

Since 2003 Aquapress publishes a series of Special Publications, which are produced at irregular intervals. All Special Publications have about 100 or more pages and are available separately from regular issues of aqua.
