I am told this fish is a new species, undescribed from indonesia. If you have any clue on what this fish may be pls share.

R. Maculatus so far have only been discovered and collected in Mexico maybe it might be found in Indonesia too?

From the appearance of it, it does fits the description of R. Maculatus.. But only a DNA testing can tell..

Quality Marine labelled it as R. sp on their stocklist..

The part about this fish being from Indonesia is almost certainly incorrect. The genus is restricted to the Atlantic/East Pacific.

Quality Marine has an identical specimen on their website listed as being collected from the "East America's" (=East Pacific). There are three species described form that region, none of which match this one. So this is likely Rypticus sp. nov.
