Sargocentron dorsomaculatum, also known as the spotfin squirrelfish, is a species of squirrelfish found in the western Pacific Ocean near the Ryukyu Islands, Pohnpei, Kosrae, the Caroline Islands, and Palau. It lives in shallow reefs at depths between 2 and 9 metres (6.6 and 29.5 ft).[2] Like other members of its genus, it is nocturnal and seeks shelter among corals and other structures.[1] It can reach sizes of up to 19.7 centimetres (7.8 in) SL.[2]
