This striking photograph showcases the unique features of the Glossamia aprion, also known as the Mouth Almighty or Cardinalfish with the Apogonid Appellation. The specimen in this image is the paratype, BMNH 1853.1.4.11, which is housed in the collections of the Natural History Museum in London. The Glossamia aprion is a small, bony fish belonging to the order Perciformes and the family Apogonidae. This ray-finned fish is native to the Indo-Pacific region and is characterized by its vibrant colors and distinctive mouth.

The fish's eyes are wide and bright, giving it a curious and alert expression. The photograph provides a close-up view of the fish's mouth, revealing the intricacies of its dental structure and the tiny, colorful spots on the roof of its mouth. The Glossamia aprion is a popular subject in the scientific community due to its unique features and intriguing behavior. This photograph serves as an important record of the species and provides a glimpse into the fascinating world of the underwater realm.
