Yellow Coris Wrasse

The Yellow Coris wrasse is a small fish that can reach a maximum length of 12 cm. It has a thin, elongated body with a terminal mouth. Body coloration is bright yellow with a few variations according to age. Juvenile and immature females have two black spots rimmed with white or light yellow on the dorsal fin (the first one at the start of the fin (head side) and the second in the middle of its dorsal fin) and a third one between the caudal peduncle and the start of the caudal fin. Hiding Mature females or young males only show the two black spots on the dorsal fin. Mature males display only the first black spot on the front of the dorsal fin, a lighter-colored spot just behind the eye, and irregular greenish-to-pinkish lines on the face.
