  abstract = {{G}ymnocranius indicus sp. nov. is described as a new species of the fish subfamily {M}onotaxinae ({S}paroidea: {L}ethrinidae), a group of commercially important species distributed throughout the {I}ndo-{W}est {P}acific, on the basis of 16 specimens collected from the {I}ndian {O}cean. {T}he new species shares the following characters with its western {P}acific sibling, the eyebrowed large-eye seabream, {G}. superciliosus: elongate body, distinctive and conspicuous dark patch above the eye, prominent forehead, moderately forked caudal fin, its lobes slightly convex inside, flank silvery, and reddish-to-red dorsal, pectoral, anal and caudal fins. {H}owever, principal component analysis based on seven morphological variables distinguished most specimens from the {I}ndian {O}cean from {G}. superciliosus. {T}he most influential variable in the analysis was the eye diameter, significantly larger in the new species than in {G}. superciliosus. {A}ll specimens of the new species that were examined also lacked blue ornamentation on the snout and cheek. {A}t the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit-{I} locus, the mean genetic p-distance between the two species was 0.039. {W}ith {G}ymnocranius indicus sp. nov., the genus now includes 12 valid nominal species; three additional species remain undescribed.},
