The hawkfish anthias (Serranocirrhitus latus), also known as the hawk anthias, fathead anthias, or sunburst anthias, is a small, colorful species of marine fish in the subfamily Anthiinae. It is the only member of the genus Serranocirrhitus.[1] Compared to most members of Anthiinae, it is relatively thickset. It reaches 13 cm (5.1 in) in length, and is orange-yellow on the upper part of its body and deep pink on the lower part. It is found at coral reefs at depths of 15–70 m (49–230 ft) in the West Pacific, ranging from Indonesia to southern Japan and Tonga.[2] In the wild, the fish's diet consists mainly of zooplankton.[3]
