 Amphiprion polymntbs (Linnaeus) has been confused almost since the day it was named. Weber and de 



Beaufort (Fishes of the Indo-Australian Archipelago, vol. 8, p. 344, 1940) discuss the confusion between 



polymnus and bicinctus, the former name having been used for the species currently called bicinctus. The follow- 

 ing were examined in the British Museum: BM1852.4.21. 144-144, from Ambolna; 1871.7.20.121 from Manado.
