Lombok Sole
Aseraggodes matsuurai
- Group: Other
- Typical depth: 0–18 m
- Max size: 5.5 cm
- For divers: safe
- IUCN status: DD
A tiny sole just six centimetres long, it was collected near a drop off riddled with small caves over sand and rubble in shallow water. Like other soles it lies flat against the bottom, and so little is known of it that its status remains data deficient.
