}} The robust ghost pipefish (Solenostomus cyanopterus), also known as the blue-finned ghost pipefish, Racek's ghost pipefish, robust-snouted ghost pipefish or the squaretail ghost-pipefish, is a species of false pipefishes belonging to the family Solenostomidae. DescriptionSolenostomus cyanopterus can reach a length of {{convert|17|cm|abbr=on}}[2] and it is the largest of the ghost pipefishes. The body may be grey, brown, pink, yellow, or bright green, with small black and white dots.[2] This cryptic species looks very similar to a drifting piece of seagrass. The caudal fin may be truncated, rounded, or lanceolated; the caudal peduncle is quite short or absent. The pelvic fin is sexually dimorphic.[2] It is an uncommon species related to pipefishes and seahorses. It can be distinguished by the presence of the pelvic fins, the prominent spiny dorsal fin, and 27–35 star-shaped plates on the skin.

When it settles on the substrate for breeding, it can be found on coastal reefs and weedy areas, at a depth of {{convert|2|-|25|m|abbr=on}}.[2] References1. ^{{cite journal | author1 = Dick, K. | author2 = Pollom, R. | last-author-amp = yes | year = 2016 | title = Solenostomus cyanopterus (errata version published in 2017) | journal = The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species | volume = 2016 | page = e.T65363316A115407689 | doi = 10.2305/IUCN.UK.2016-3.RLTS.T65363316A67621178.en }} 2. ^1 2 3 4 {{FishBase|Solenostomus|cyanopterus|month=February|year=2018}} External links{{Commons category|Solenostomus cyanopterus}}
