Ostorhinchus capricornis Ostorhinchus capricornis Ostorhinchus capricornis, also known as the Capricorn cardinalfish, is a species of ray-finned fish, a cardinalfish from the family Apogonidae which occurs around reefs in the western Pacific Ocean. "Ostorhinchus capricornis" is dusky yellow in colour, this lightens to bronze or golden yellow on the ventral surfave. It has a black spot around the caudal peduncle and it has two "neon" blue stripes which run through the eye, the lower stripe extending to the posterior edge of the operculum. It grows to a maximum standard length of . It is similar to the yellow cardinalfish ("Ostorhinchus flavus") but
Caudal luring difference is in the snake's posture and especially in the nature and outcome of the behaviour in reference to the encounter with prey. Other caudal luring-like movements occur as warning signals and are induced by stressful circumstances. Thus identifying caudal luring entails observing the effect that tail movements have on prey species, a burden of evidence that is woefully lacking in much of the literature on this intriguing behaviour. Caudal luring Caudal luring is the use of tail movements by a predator to attract prey animals that think the tail is a worm or other smaller prey and approach within
