«Distribution: Red Sea and Gulf of Aden. Littoral to sublittoral depths, living amongst coral and coral rubble on sandy substrates.
Remarks: All authors overlooked Forsskąl's description of O. maculosa from the Red Sea, prior to Yaron et al. (1986), and mostly used Gmelin's name O. sanguinolenta; Gmelin only cited Chemnitz (1784). Chemnitz also overlooked Forsskal's publication, but mentioned Forsskąl and Niebuhr's expedition to the Red Sea in his description: "'Sit ist von der gelehrten Gesellschaft, welche unser höchstseliger König nach Arabien gesandt, hierher geschicket warden." [The species is from the scientific expedition, which was sent to Arabia by our honourable king]. Thus Gmelin indirectly referred to the material described by Forsskąl (1775). P. pictus Deshayes in Laborde & Linant is preoccupied by Da Costa (1778: 144) and the type material is morphologically similar to O. maculosa. P. concinnus Reeve is preoccupied by Koch & Dunker (1837: 42) [not Philippi, 1845] and the type material is identical to young specimens of O. maculosa. P. luxurians Küster is also similar to O. maculosa and Küster also mentioned in the original description the close alliance of O. sanguinolenta. Cox (1929: 205) treated P. luxurians as a variation of O. sanguinolenta. For description of the present species see Oliver (1992: 76).» DIJKSTRA, H.H. & J. KNUDSEN. 1998.
