'''''Chaetodon auripes''''', the '''oriental butterflyfish''', is a species of marine [[ray-finned fish]], a [[butterflyfish]]
==Description==
''Chaetodon auripes'' has a mainly yellow body marked with a wide vertical band running through the eyes which is black with a slightly thinner white band immediately behind that. The juveniles have a black [[ocellus]] on the upper part of soft-rayed part of the [[dorsal fin]]. This fades as the fish matures. The dorsal, [[Anal fin|anal]] and [[pelvic fin]]s are all vivid yellow in colour.<ref name = Saltcorner>{{cite web | url = http://www.saltcorner.com/AquariumLibrary/browsespecies.php?CritterID=470 | title = Chaetodon auripes | publisher = Bob Goemans | year = 2012 | work = Saltcorner | access-date = 19 December 2020}}</ref> The dorsal fin has 12 spines and 23-24 soft rays while the anal fin has 3 spines and 18-19 soft rays. This species reaches a [[Fish measurement|total length]] of {{convert|20|cm|in}}.<ref name = Fishbase/>
==Distribution==
''Chaetodon auripes'' is found in the western Pacific Ocean from southern Japan, the [[Ryukyu Islands]], [[Izu Islands]], [[Ogasawara Islands]], the southwest of the Republic of Korea, [[Taiwan]] the southern coast of China to southern Vietnam.<ref name="iucn status 20 November 2021" />
==Habitat and biology==
''Chaetodon auripes'' occurs at depths of {{convert|1|to|30|m|ft}} and is found on rocky reefs where coral and algae are present. Juveniles are typically found in tidal pools and sheltered rocky areas in shallow water. They gather in aggregations although they are also often encountered as solitary individuals. This species lives in cooler waters than other butterflyfish and can tolerate temperatures down to {{convert|10|°C|F}} off Japan.<ref name="iucn status 20 November 2021" /> It is known to occur as deep as {{convert|150|m|ft}}. It feeds on filamentous [[algae]] as well as worms, [[crustaceans]], soft corals, stony corals, sea anemones, and some other benthic invertebrates.<ref name = Saltcorner/>
==Systematics==
''Chaetodon auripes'' was first formally described in 1901 by the American ichthyologists David Starr Jordan and John Otterbein Snyder with the type locality given as [[Nagasaki]].<ref name = CofF>{{Cof genus|genus=Chaetodon|access-date=19 December 2020}}</ref> This species belongs to the large [[subgenus]] ''[[Rabdophorus]]'' which might warrant recognition as a distinct [[genus]]. <ref name = F&W>{{cite journal | author1 = Fessler, Jennifer L. | author2 = Westneat, Mark W | year = 2007 | title = Molecular phylogenetics of the butterflyfishes (Chaetodontidae): Taxonomy and biogeography of a global coral reef fish family | journal = Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution | volume = 45 | issue = 1 | pages = 50–68 | doi = 10.1016/j.ympev.2007.05.018}}</ref><ref name =HCS>{{cite journal | author1 = Hsu, Kui-Ching | author2 = Chen, Jeng-Ping | author3 = Shao, Kwang-Tsao | name-list-style = amp | year = 2007 | title = Molecular phylogeny of ''Chaetodon'' (Teleostei: Chaetodontidae) in the Indo-West Pacific: evolution in geminate species pairs and species groups | journal = Raffles Bulletin of Zoology Supplement | volume = 14 | pages = 77-86 | url = http://rmbr.nus.edu.sg/rbz/biblio/s14/s14rbz10_Hsu-pp77-86.pdf | access-date = 2020-12-19 | archive-date = 2007-08-11 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20070811042056/http://rmbr.nus.edu.sg/rbz/biblio/s14/s14rbz10_Hsu-pp77-86.pdf | url-status = dead }}</ref>
