The sabre-toothed blenny, Aspidontus taeniatus, is a species of blenny that imitates the "dance" of a similarly colored species of cleaner wrasse. It tricks fish into offering their underparts to be cleaned. Instead of eating parasites from the scales of the fish, the sabre-toothed blenny bites the victim and rushes away.
It is indigenous to coral reef habitats in the Indian Ocean.
