Dipterygonotus marisrubri is a species of marine ray-finned fish, first described in 2014.[2] It is endemic to the waters of the Red Sea. This species can reach a standard length of 7.4 cm (2.9 in).[3] Until 2024, it was classified as Emmelichthys marisrubri until a phylogenetic analysis suggested a transfer.[4]

Etymology

[edit]

The specific name marisrubri refers to the Latin maris, sea; and rubrus, red, alluding to its type locality of the Red Sea.[5]
