Amphiprion omanensis (Oman anemonefish) is a marine fish belonging to the family Pomacentridae, the clownfishes and damselfishes.
The body of A. omanensis is dark brown and with two white bars and distinctive forked caudal fin, which is blackish in juveniles fading to white in adults.
[3] Anemone fish are sedentary and depend on ocean currents for dispersal.
Adults provide high levels of parental care to their young that hatch with well-developed swimming and sensory capabilities before embarking on a <3 week pelagic larval phase, during which time they may disperse over long distances.
The study found an asymmetrical dispersal pattern between the two regions with a higher occurrence of southward dispersal, consistent with the prevailing currents, with immigration rates of 5.4% in the south and 0.7% in the north.
