ANNOTATED CHECKLIST OF FISHES 295 



TABLE 1 (cont'd) 



Family HOLCXIENTRIDAE (cont'd) 



Sargocentron melanospilos (Bleeker, 1858): Randall, 1986. 



Sargocentron microstoma (Gunther, 1859) 



Holocentrus microstomus Woods, 1953. 



Sargocentron punctatissimum (Cuvier, 1829). 



Holocentrus lacteoguttatus Woods, 1953. Randall and Heemstra (1985) pointed out that S punctatissimum has 



priority over S. hcteoguttatum (Cuvier). 



Sargocentron praslin (Lacepede, 1802): Randall, 1986. 



Sargocentron spiniferum (Forsskal, 1775) 



Holocentrus spinifer Woods, 1953. 



Sargocentron tiere (Cuvier, 1829). 



Holocentrus tiere Woods, 1953. 



Sargocentron tiereoides (Bleeker, 1853). 



Holocentrus tieroides Woods, 1953. 



Sargocentron violaceum (Bleeker, 1853): Shimizu and Yamakawa, 1979. 



Order GASTEROSTEIFORMES 



Family AULOSTOMIDAE 



Aulostomus chinensis (Linnaeus, 1766): Schultz, 1953. 



Family FISTULARIIDAE 



Fistularia commersonii Ruppell, 1838. 



Fistularia petimba Schultz, 1953. Fritzsche (1976) showed that shallow-water Indo-Pacific specimens of Fistularia that 



most authors have called petimba axe F. commersonii. The name petimba is correct for the deep-water tropical 



Atlantic and Indo West-Pacific species with small spines posteriorly on the lateral line. 



Family SOLENOSTOMIDAE 



Solenostomus paradoxus (Pallas, 1870). 



Solenostomus armatus Schultz, 1953. Ronald A Fritzsche (personal communication) has reidentified Schultz's specimen 



(27.5 mm SL from a plankton tow off Bikini) as a juvenile of S, paradoxus. 



Family SYNGNATHIDAE 



Choeroichlhys sculptus (Gunther, 1870): Dawson (1976); Randall, 1986 (after Strasburg). 



Coryfhoichthys flavofasciatus (Riippell, 1838). 



Corvthoichthys flavofasciatus conspicillatus Herald, 1953. Dawson (1977a) could find no substantial basis for 



Herald's division of this species to subspecies. 



Corythoichthvs intestinalis (Ramsay, 1881). 



Corvtboicbtbi^s intestinalis waitei Herald, 1953. 



Coryf/ioich(hys nigripectus Herald, 1953. 



Cori/tboicbtbys scbultzi Herald, 1953. 



Cosmocampus bannen (Heiald and Randall, 1972). 



Cosmocampus maxweberi (Whitley, 1933). 



Syngnatbus maxweberi Herald, 1953. Dawson (1980) referred S. maxweberi to the genus Cosmocampus Dawson. 



Doriirhampbus excisus excisus Kaup, 1956 



Dorvrbamphus melanopleura melanopleura Herald, 1953 Dawson (1981) placed D melanopleura (Bleeker) in the 



synonymy of D. excisus Kaup. 



Dunckerocampus dactyliopborus (Bleeker, 1853); Herald, 1953. 



Halicampus brocki (Herald, 1953). 



Halicampus mataafae (Jordan and Seale, 1906): Herald, 1953. 



Icbtbyocampus bikiniensis Herald, 1953. Dawson (1977b) wrote that he is unable to refer this species, which Herald 



described from two planktonic postlarvae, to any genus, but the origin of the dorsal fin on the trunk rules out its 



placement in Icbtbi^ocampus. It is probably the young of Halicampus, Pboxocampus. or Corythoicbtbiis 



(C. E. Dawson, personal communication). 



Micrognatbus brevirostris pygmaeus Fritzsche, 1981. 



Micrognathus breuirostris Herald, 1953 



Pboxocampus diacantbus (Schultz, 1943). 



lcbtbi!Ocampus diacantbus Herald, 1953. Dawson (1977b) erected Pboxocampus for this species and two other 



pipefishes 



Order SCORPAENIFORMES 



Family SCORPAENIDAE 



Dendrocbirus biocellatus (Fowler, 1938): Schultz, 1966. 



Dendrochirus zebra (Cuvier, 1829): Randall, 1986. 



Parascorpaena mcadamsi (Fowler, 1938): Randall, 1986. 



Parascorpaena mossambica (Peters, 1855).
