Etymology: Trimma:Greek, trimma, -atos = something crushed (Ref. 45335); blematium:Name from compound word derived from the Greek μπλε (ble) = blue, and μάτι (máti) = eye, in referring to the distinctive blue dorsal surfaces of the eyes.
Environnement : milieu / zone climatique / profondeur / gamme de distribution Écologie
marin récifal; profondeur 60 - 70 m (Ref. 118315). Tropical
Épines dorsales (Total) : 7; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 8 - 9; Épines anales: 1; Rayons mous anaux: 8. This species is distinguished by the following characters: scales on cheeks and opercle; scales in predorsal midline 8-9; unbranched pectoral fin rays 16; branched 5th pelvic fin ray, 45-50% length of 4th ray; total gill rakers 20-22; broad interorbital (46-63% pupil width) with narrow crease-like postorbital trench ending at posterior-most papilla in row p; small nasal apparatus placed on the anterior one-third of snout with posterior nares forming posterodorsa margin of nasal sac; papillae in row p 7 (with a single papilla below row n); when alive or freshly collected, the dorsal surface of eye is dark blue; when preserved, with fairly evenly distributed melanophores over dorsal surface of snout (Ref. 118315).
Differs from Trimma meityae by having 16 pectoral fin rays (vs. 17-18), a branched 5th pelvic fin ray (vs. unbranched), with 7 papillae in row 'p' (vs. 8 papillae); and in live specimens, the blue colour over the top of the eyes is much darker in this species than in T. meityae (Ref. 118315).
Body shape (shape guide): elongated; Cross section: oval.
Observed in mixed rubble and sand habitat, on a deep reef slope (at 60-70 m depth) and exposed to significant current and cold-water upwelling (Ref. 118315).
