A new bandfish, Owstonia sarmiento, is described from specimens collected off East Luzon, Philippines at about 200-300m depth during the AURORA 2007 Expedition. It differs from other known congeneric species in having more dorsal fin rays, two anal spines, more vertebral counts, and the least lateral row scale counts. The species is described (colour photo and radiograph included) and a diagnostic key to species of the genus is provided.
