The orange skunk clownfish, Amphiprion sandaracinos, also known as the skunk-striped anemonefish is a type of clownfish that is very bright orange, with a white stripe on the dorsal ridge from the mouth, between the eyes and ending after the dorsal fin. It grows to about 5.5 inches, and lives in the western Pacific Ocean. Amphiprion sandaracinos was recently observed to coexist with the Clark's anemonefish Amphiprion clarkii within one host anemone of Stichodactyla mertensii.

The person who was so happy to sit at the Woolworths counter is now sitting at the Ritz, listening to the harp, and wondering what tea to order.... [ellipsis in source] Am I awake?”

“But he sent her Good-by,
And said to be good,
And wear her red hood,
And look for skunk tracks
In the snow with an ax—
And do everything!”
