Lemonpeel (Centropyge flavissima) and yellow (C. heraldi) pygmy angelfishes each consist of two geographically isolated sibling species

Genetic variation was examined in two complex cases of Indo-Pacific pygmy angelfishes (genus Centropyge; Pomacanthidae). The lemonpeel pygmy angelfish C. flavissima (Cuvier and Valenciennes) has a geographically disjunct Indian vs. Pacific distribution and the individuals from these two regions differ by their colour patterns. Previous research on C. flavissima has shown mitochondrial introgression from two related species, C. eibli in the eastern Indian Ocean and C. vrolikii in the Pacific…

It is concluded that the Black Tiger Centropyge is not a valid species but rather an intermediate between sympatric color morphs that correspond to the putative species C. flavissima, a taxonomic oddity restricted to shoals and atolls off the coast of northwestern Australia.

The Indian Ocean C. flavissima was genetically distinctive from the Pacific Ocean form, but genetically indistinguishable from sympatric C. vrolikii across the entire range of “C. cocosensis”.

The mtDNA phylogeny reveals a period of isolation typical of congeneric species, whereas the within-lineage mtDNA ΦST values and the nuclear DNA data reveal recent or ongoing gene flow between species, which concludes that an ancient divergence of C. flavissima was swamped by introgression and hybridization in two of the three regions.

While there is a strong geographic component to the distribution of color morphs in C. loriculus, there is no evidence for corresponding genetic partitioning, and genetic studies in conjunction with larval distribution data indicate that Centropyge species are highly dispersive.

It is hypothesized that in S. commerson and possibly other Scomberomorus species, philopatric migration may play a role in maintaining the geographic isolation of populations by annihilating the potential consequences of passive dispersal.
