Abstract
The photographs of Hemitaurichthys polylepis in the natural environment of the coastal waters of Vietnam (Hon Noi) are given for the first time. The feeding of the representatives of the species on epibenthic organisms is registered on the slope of the reef. The data on the occurrence and depth distribution (6–35 m) of this rare (for the studied water area) species in the coastal waters of Vietnam are reviewed.
