Er ähnelt sehr stark dem Orangen Anemonenfisch (Amphiprion sandaracinos) und unterscheidet sich von diesem durch die unterschiedliche Anzahl der Flossenstacheln, der weißen Schwanzflosse, die beim Orangen Anemonenfisch orange ist, sowie dem auf dem Kopf schmaleren weißen Längsstreifen. Die Zähne des Weißrücken-Anemonenfisch sind als Schneidezähne ausgebildet, während die von Amphiprion sandaracinos eine konische Form haben.
ich habe weiters beobachtet, dass A. akallopisos eher lachsfarben bzw. rosa-orange und A. sandaracinos leuchtend orange ist. Ich weiß aber nicht ob das immer zutrifft.
