Etymology: Chromis: Greek, chromis = a fish, perhaps a perch (Ref. 45335); planesi: Named for Dr. Serge Planes of Université de Perpignan, France, who discovered and captured all known specimens of this species.

Épines dorsales (Total) : 14; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 12 - 13; Épines anales: 2; Rayons mous anaux: 12 - 13; Vertèbres: 26. Diagnosis: In life, yellowish body with nine stripes, each composed of a series of small blue dots, extending from the gill opening to the caudal fin base; pectoral and caudal fins yellow; pelvic and anal fins dark brown to black. Dorsal rays XIV, 12-13 (usually 13); anal rays II, 12-13 (usually 12); pectoral rays 20. Tubed lateral line scales 17. Gill rakers 6-8 + 20-24 (total 27-30). Axil of pectoral fin black. Eye-sized bluish white spot (fades and darkens rapidly after death) on body at bases of posteriormost 6 to 8 segmented dorsal rays. Body depth 1.94-2.06 in SL.
Collected from channels on the outer edge of a deep plateau, where corals, soft corals and sponges are abundant (Ref. 52528). Life history characteristics for the family specify that this group is oviparous, with distinct pairing during breeding (Ref. 205). Eggs are demersal and adhere to the substrate (Ref. 205). Males guard and aerate the eggs (Ref. 205).
