It is characterized by an incomplete metamorphosis with some larval characters retained such as the developed spination and relatively straight dorsal contour of the head, absence of the scales and the branched fin rays (except in pelvic fins), and a long penultimate dorsal-fin spine. Comparison of this juvenile with juveniles of R. aphanes 11–22 mm SL reveals the diagnostic importance of the pigmentation of the pectoral fin which disappears in the adult fishes. A possible synonymy of the genera Rhinopias and Pogonoscorpius was repeatedly supposed by the former authors. The poorly-known Pogonoscorpius sechellensis retains the features characteristic for the species of Rhinopias from the earliest ontogenetic stages only, and probably represents a neotenic species of the latter genus.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p id="idm45181325822832">Описан малёк <italic>Rhinopias</italic> cf. <italic>argoliba</italic> стандартной длиной 28 мм, пойманный в западной части Тихого океана к востоку от Филиппин. Он характеризуется незавершённым метаморфозом с сохранением таких личиночных черт, как развитое ошипление костей головы и её относительно ровный дорсальный контур, отсутствие чешуи и ветвящихся лучей в плавниках (кроме брюшного), неукороченный предпоследний колючий луч спинного плавника. Сравнение этого экземпляра с мальками <italic>R. apahes</italic> стандартной длиной 11–22 мм выявило диагностическую значимость ювенильной пигментации грудного плавника, утрачиваемой взрослыми рыбами.
