The pink maomao (Caprodon longimanus), also known as the longfin perch, is a species of marine ray-finned fish, a member of the family Anthiadidae.

[1] Analysis of stomach contents of fish caught in the Juan Fernandez Islands of Chile showed that this species is opportunistic in its choice of prey, the commonest prey item found were salps of the genus Thalia but this study found that a total of 17 genera of crustaceans were consumed, as well as pteropods, chaetognaths and polychaetes.

[4] Juvenile fish are only occasionally observed suggesting that this species breeds infrequently in low numbers.

[5] The pink maomao was first formally described as Anthias longimanus in 1859 by the Germany-born British zoologist Albert Günther (1830-1914) with the type locality not being stated but thought to be Australia.

[3] The pink maomao has thick, white flesh which is excellent eating and it is pursued by spearfishermen[5] but is infrequently caught by line fishermen.
