Info
Suzuki, Senou, Randall, 2016
The new species is named in honor of Mr. Korechika Yano, who first discovered the new species and photographed it underwater.
Valenciennea yanoi occurs on sand or mud bottoms of bays and inlets at depths of 8–20 meters.
Valenciennea yanoi is presently known from Iriomote Island, Ryukyu Islands, Japan. Additional records from underwater photographs in the Image Database of Fishes, KPM-NR include Okinawa and Miyako Island (Ryukyu Islands, Japan), Mindoro (Philippines), Palau, Mabul Island (Sabah, Malaysia), and Bali (Lesser Sunda Islands, Indonesia).

Jumping guard
A jumping guard prevents (nocturnal) fish from jumping out.
Wrasses, blennies, hawkfishs and gobies jump out of an unprotected tank in fright if their night rest is disturbed, unfortunately these jumpers are found dried up in the morning on carpets, glass edges or later behind the tank.

A small night light also helps, as it provides the fish with a means of orientation in the dark!
