Kuiterichthys pietschi is a species of fish in the family Antennariidae.[2][3] It was described in 2013 by Rachel J. Arnold from 20 specimens collected at depths of 60 to 89 m (197 to 292 ft) off New South Wales, Australia . It differs from its congener K. furcipilis in number of fin rays, number of vertebrae, and escal morphology. It is named in honor of Theodore Wells Pietsch.[1]
Kuiterichthys pietschi measure 19–32 mm (0.75–1.26 in) in standard length.[1]
