}}Plectorhinchus chaetodonoides, the harlequin sweetlips, is a species of grunt native to the Indian Ocean and the western Pacific Ocean. It is a denizen of coral reefs found at depths of from {{convert|1|to|30|m|ft|abbr=on}}. It can reach {{convert|72|cm|in|abbr=on}} in TL. The heaviest known individual weighed {{convert|7|kg|lb|abbr=on}}. This species is of minor importance to local commercial fisheries and can be found in the aquarium trade.[1]

Juveniles are brown with large white blotches and mimic the movement of a poisonous flatworm for defence against predators. They gain more spots and the spots reverse from white to black as they age.
