Chromis earina the spring chromis.

Collected or observed throughout the tropical western Pacific, from Puluwat westward to Palau, south to Papua New Guinea, Vanuatu and Fiji. It was not observed at Rarotonga (Cook Islands), Kiriti- mati (Line Islands), or American Samoa during brief surveys of deep reefs at those localities. A single speci- men was also recently collected by Mark Erdmann (Conservation International) in 75 m depth at Misool Island, Raja Ampat Islands, Indonesia.

The name earina comes from the latin word earinos, which means the color of spring - green.
