We found a brownish color variant of the false cleanerfish (approximately 6.5 cm in total length) on the fringing reef of Sesoko Island, Okinawa in July 2019 (Sato et al., 2020). The brownish A. taeniatus sometimes changed its color to a bluish mimic pattern when moving between feeding sites but returned to the brownish pattern when feeding.
