Etymology: Pseudochromis: Greek, pseudes = false + Greek, chromis = a fish, perhaps a perch (Ref. 45335); fuligifinis: The specific epithet fuligifinis is a combination of the Latin fuligo, meaning soot, and the Latin finis, meaning end. It refers to the sooty appearance of the distal ends of the caudal-fin rays. To be considered a
noun in apposition (Ref. 88961).

Descripción breve
Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría
Espinas dorsales (total) : 3; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 25 - 26; Espinas anales: 3; Radios blandos anales: 14 - 15. Pseudochromis fuligifinis is distinguished from congeners by the following combination of characters: dorsal-fin rays III,25–26, with last 2–9 rays unbranched; anal-fin rays III,14–15 (usually III,15); circumpeduncular scales 16; dorsal-fin origin to pelvic-fin origin 23.4–25.9 % SL; horizontal scale rows below anterior lateral line 11–13; and caudal fin with sub-basal dark grey to black half-moon shaped marking on the caudal fin, with distal portion of fin posterior to dark spot and to distal tips of elongated dorsal and ventral lobes of fin sooty black (Ref. 88961).
Body shape (shape guide): elongated; Cross section: compressed.
Found in coral reef slopes and dropoffs to 33 m (Ref 90102).
