03A987BBBA7AFF96FEBBA508E0C3FB7E.taxon	etymology	Etymology. We are pleased to name this fish after Dr. Martin F. Gomon, Senior Curator of Fishes, Museum Victoria, Melbourne, Australia, for his great contribution to fish taxonomy and for his long-term friendship with the authors. Comparison. Chaunax gomoni sp. nov. is the only species found to have un-pigmented peritoneum which readily distinguishes it from all known congeners. It is similar to several species in C. abei - group that have spots on dorsal surface, including C. abei Le Danois, 1978, C. endeavouri Whitley, 1929, C. breviradius Le Danois, 1978 and C. nudiventer Ho & Shao, 2010. Although most similar to C. abei and C. endeavouris in having spots of similar size on the dorsal surface, C. gomoni sp. nov. can be distinguished from these two species in having only simple spinules covering the body (vs. bifurcate mixed with simple spinules on dorsal surface). Moreover, it can be distinguished from C. breviradius in having relatively large spots which become larger and more widely spaced with growth (vs. spots uniformly small and dense spots at all sizes) and relatively stout spinules on the body; and from C. nudiventer in having the ventral surface covered by fine spinules (vs. a large naked area on the ventral surface) and relatively few neuromasts in the upper preopercular series (two, vs. three to five), in the pectoral series (11 – 14, vs. 15 – 19), and in the pectoral series (29 – 38, vs. 39 – 50).	en	Ho, Hsuan-Ching, Kawai, Toshio, Satria, Fayakun (2015): Species of the anglerfish genus Chaunax from Indonesia, with descriptions of two new species (Lophiiformes: Chaunacidae).

The specific name is combination of two Greek words, brachys short and soma body, referring to its relatively short and stout body.	en	Ho, Hsuan-Ching, Kawai, Toshio, Satria, Fayakun (2015): Species of the anglerfish genus Chaunax from Indonesia, with descriptions of two new species (Lophiiformes: Chaunacidae).

03A987BBBA7FFF97FEB3A2A8E5F6FB1E.taxon	diagnosis	Comparison. Chaunax brachysomus sp. nov. is one of four Chaunax species that have a uniformly pink or red colour when fresh and are uniformly pale when preserved, the other three species being C. russatus, C. mulleus and C. apus (long-term preservation may cause loss of colour pattern in other species as well). It can be easily distinguished from the above-mentioned species by its large head, short tail, and few gill rakers (see Table 2 for detailed comparison).	en	Ho, Hsuan-Ching, Kawai, Toshio, Satria, Fayakun (2015): Species of the anglerfish genus Chaunax from Indonesia, with descriptions of two new species (Lophiiformes: Chaunacidae).

03A987BBBA7FFF97FEB3A2A8E5F6FB1E.taxon	discussion	Although C. nudiventer was characterised by its large irregular greenish spots (Ho & Shao, 2010), some individuals were found to be uniformly pinkish (Ho, pers. obser.). It differs from C. brachysomus sp. nov. in having a large naked area on the ventral surface and relatively more lateral-line neuromasts in the lateral-line proper (39 – 57, vs. 33 in C. brachysomus), upper preopercular series (three to five, vs. two), and pectoral series (15 – 17, vs. 12 or 13). The presence of mixed broad- and narrow-based spinules on the dorsal surfaces is common in members of Chaunax. These broad-based spinules are usually difficult to see without magnification, except for these pinkish species which have contract colouration among these two forms of spinules (e. g., more transparent, compared to these narrow-based spinules which are creamy white) and are easy to see. Thus far, C. brachysomus sp. nov. is the only member with mixed broad- and narrow-based spinules on the ventral surface. All other Chaunax species are either naked in this region or have uniformly short spinules.	en	Ho, Hsuan-Ching, Kawai, Toshio, Satria, Fayakun (2015): Species of the anglerfish genus Chaunax from Indonesia, with descriptions of two new species (Lophiiformes: Chaunacidae).
