Laubuka trevori predorsal scales; aw s well as 5+4+2 teeth on the fifth ceratobranchial bone. "L. trevori" has 14½–15½ branched rays in its anal fin, a relatively short pelvic fin which is about a fifth as long as tits standard length and it has two stripes running along its body: one a golden and the other a blue-green stripe which runs from behind the operculum to the peduncle of the caudal fin which is broken and less distinct towards the head than the golden stripe. Laubuka trevori Laubuka trevori is a species of small fish of the minnow and carp family, Cyprinidae,
Operculum (fish) the shape is visible and then the individual components are developed days later. The size and shape of the operculum bone is dependent on the organism's location. For example, fresh water threespine sticklebacks form a less dense and smaller opercular series in relation to marine threespine sticklebacks. The marine threespine stickleback exhibits a larger and thicker opercular series. This provides evidence that there was an evolutionary change in the operculum bone. The thicker and more dense bone may have been favored due to selective pressures exerted from the threespine stickleback's environment. The development of the operculuar series has changed dramatically
