<p>A sixth member of the Chrysiptera oxycephala group of Pomacentridae, Chrysiptera burtjonesi, is described<br>
on the basis of 24 specimens, 20.5–48.2 mm SL, collected at the Solomon Islands in the western Pacific Ocean.<br>
It differs from other members of the group, including C. ellenae (Raja Ampat Islands, West Papua Province in<br>
Indonesia), C. maurineae (Cenderawasih Bay, West Papua Province), C. oxycephala (central Indonesia, Philippines,<br>
and Palau), C. papuensis (northeastern Papua New Guinea), and C. sinclairi (Bismarck Archipelago and islands<br>
off northeastern Papua New Guinea), on the basis of its distinctive color pattern and a 6.9% divergence in the<br>
sequence of the mitochondrial control region from its closest relative (C. maurinae). Adults are primarily grayish<br>
brown to greenish except bright yellow on the ventralmost head and body, including the adjacent pelvic and anal<br>
fins. Juveniles are mostly neon blue to dark blue with bright yellow pelvic and anal fins. In addition, it is the only<br>
species besides C. sinclairi that usually lacks embedded scales on the preorbital and suborbital bones.</p>
