TABLE 1 (cont'd) 



Family MICRODESMIDAE (cont'd) 



Ptereleotris microlepis (Bleeker, 1856): Randall and Hoese, 1985. 

 Ptereleotris zebra (Fowler, 1938): Randall and Hoese, 1985. 

 Family ACANTHURIDAE 



Acanthurus achilles Shaw, 1803: Schultz and Woods, 1953. 

 Acanthurus blochii Valenciennes, 1835. 



Acanthurus mata Schultz and Woods, 1953. Randall (MS) has shown that many authors have been mistaken in applying 

 the name A. mata to this fish. It is the earliest name for the species that most authors have identified as A. bleekeri 

 Gunther, 1861. 

 Acanthurus guttatus Bloch and Schneider, 1801: Schultz and Woods, 1953. 

 Acanthurus lineatus (Linnaeus, 1758): Schultz and Woods, 1953. 

 Acanthurus waculiceps (Ahl, 1923): Randall, 1986. 

 Acanthurus mata (Cuvier, 1829). 



Acanthurus bleekeri Schultz and Woods, 1953. See discussion under A. blochii. 

 Acanthurus nigricans (Linnaeus, 1758). 

 Acanthurus aliala Woods and Schultz, 1953. Randall (1956) placed A. aliala Lesson in the synonymy of A. glaucopareius 

 Cuvier; both, however, are synonyms of A. nigricans (Linnaeus) (Randall, MS). 

 Acanthurus nigricauda Duncker and Mohr, 1929. 



Acanthurus nigricans Schultz and Woods, 1953. Acanthurus nigricans (Linnaeus) is the species most authors 



have identified as A. glaucopareius. 

 Acanthurus gahhm Randall, 1956. Acanthurus gahhm (Forsskal) is an endemic Red Sea species. 

 Acanthurus nigrofuscus (Forsskal, 1775). 



Acanthurus elongatus Schultz and Woods, 1953 (in part). Randall (1956) indicated that nigrofuscus is the oldest name 

 for this species; A. elongatus (Lacepede) is not the same fish. 

 Acanthurus nigroris Valenciennes, 1835. 



Acanthurus elongatus Schultz and Woods, 1953 (in part). 

 Acanthurus olioaceus Bloch and Schneider, 1801: Schultz and Woods, 1953. 

 Acanthurus pyroferus Kittlitz, 1834. 



Acanthurus leucosternon Schultz and Woods, 1953. Randall (1956) showed that this is a misidentificatlon; 

 A leucosternon Bennett is an Indian Ocean species. 

 Acanthurus thompsoni (Fowler, 1923). 



Acanthurus philippinus Schultz and Woods, 1953. Randall (1956) referred A. philippinus Herre to the synonymy of 

 A thompsoni. 

 Acanthurus triostegus triostegus (Linnaeus, 1758): Woods and Schultz, 1953. 

 Acanthurus xanthopterus Valenciennes, 1835: Randall, 1980a. 

 Ctenochaetus binotatus Randall, 1955b: Randall, 1986. 

 Ctenoc/iaetus hawaiiensis Randall, 1955b: Randall, 1986 

 Ctenochaetus marginatus (Valenciennes, 1835). 

 Ctenochaetus sp. Hiyama, 1943. 

 Ctenochaetus cyanoguttatus Randall, 1955b. 

 Ctencxhaetus striatus (Quoy and Gaimard, 1825): Schultz and Woods, 1953. 

 Ctencxhaetus strigosus (Bennett, 1828): Randall, 1986. 

 Naso annulatus (Quoy and Gaimard, 1825): Schultz and Woods, 1953. 

 Naso breuirostris (Valenciennes, 1835): Schultz and Woods, 1953. 

 Naso hexacanthus (Bleeker, 1855): Schultz and Woods, 1953. 

 Naso lituratus (Bloch and Schneider, 1801): Schultz and Woods, 1953. 

 Naso tuberosus Lacepede, 1801: Randall, 1986. 

 Naso unicornis (Forsskal, 1775): Schultz and Woods, 1953. 

 Naso ulamingii (Valenciennes, 1835): Schultz and Woods, 1953. 

 Paracanthurus hepatus (Linnaeus, 1766): Randall, 1981d. 

 Zebrasoma flavescens (Bennett, 1828): Schultz and Woods, 1953 (in part). 

 Zebrasoma scopas (Cuvier, 1829). 



Zebrasoma flavescens Schultz and Woods, 1953 (in part). Randall (1955c) showed that Z. flavescens and Z. scopas are 

 distinct species. 

 Zebrasoma ueliferum (Bloch, 1795): Schultz and Woods, 1953. 

 Family ZANCLIDAE 



Zanclus comutus (Linnaeus, 1758): Woods, 1953. 



Zanclus canescens Woods, 1953. Randall (1955a) demonstrated that Z. canescens (Linnaeus) is the late postlarval stage 

 of Z. comutus. The latter has priority due to decision of the first revisor, Cuvier, 1831.
