True Percula Clown (Amphiprion percula)
Because of its name, Amphiprion percula, it is the True Percula Clownfish. Typically orange in color with three white bars, with the middle bar having a forward-projecting bulge. Has 10 (rarely 9) dorsal spines. Usually has jet black margins of varied widths around its white bars, often of which can be rather thick. The False percula or Ocellaris clown fish may have no black margins present, but most often has thin, never thick black margins around its white bars.
