Yes- This is a Misbar version, Its considered misbar when the quality of the imperfect barring pattern of regal angelfish ranges from small imperfections in its stripes, to stripes that branch across other bars, and at least one individual has been documented with almost no bars in the center of the body. Ironic as in the case of yours is this aberrant striped regal angelfish generally have a normal pattern on their other side, which is still beautiful on its own!
