Pristiapogon exostigma, also known as Eyeshadow cardinalfish or oneline cardinalfish, is a small (max length is 11 cm) pale ray-finned fish from the family Apogonidae, the cardinalfishes with light-ended black stripe ending in black spot above centre of stripe. [1] [2] [3] It has an Indo-Pacific range which extends from the Red Sea to the Line Islands and Mangareva Islands and south to northern Australia and north to the Ryukyu Islands. [3]
This species spends the day sheltering under rock ledges. [4] They can be found among isolated coral heads in the silty sheltered by reefs. It is a solitary and rather rare, nocturnal species which feeds on fishes and invertebrates. They are mouthbrooders who form pairs when courting. [3]
