Chromis earina is a species of fish in the Pomacentridae family. It was first found at depths greater than 60 metres (200 ft) in a coral reef habitat in the western Pacific, specifically the Caroline Islands, Fiji, and Vanuatu. It differs from its cogenerates on a colour and morphological basis.[1]
