Etymology: Thalassoma: Greek, thalassa = the sea + Greek, soma = body; the colour of the sea (Ref. 45335).
More on authors: Quoy & Gaimard.
Issue
Related species: Thalassoma sanctahelenae (St. Helena I,), and Thalassoma newtoni (West Central Atlantic) (Ref. 50607).
Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Ecologia
marinhas associadas(os) a recifes; intervalo de profundidade 0 - 50 m (Ref. 86997). Tropical; 8°S - 10°S, 15°W - 14°W
Central Atlantic: Ascension I. (Ref. 98447).
Reports from other areas are doubtful: St. Helena (in Ref. 5292; see Ref. 119515); São Tomé Island: intermediate form with Thalassoma pavo (Ref. 34088). Ghana and other localities on the west African coasts (Ref. 86997). If reports would be confirmed, they are more likely the result of human transportation (Ref. 98447).
