Resumo

Anthias conspicuus, a sexually dichromatic, new species is described from the Indian Ocean. Anthias boulengeri is proposed as a substitute name for the junior homonym Anthias formosus Boulenger. Anthias evansi Smith is assigned to the genus Mirolabrichthys and compared with M. tuka and M. dispar. A synopsis of diagnostic characters of valid species plus a list of nominal species of Anthias which have been described or reported from the Indo-Western Pacific region are presented.
