This specimen represents the highly colored form or ontogenetic 

 species common also in the coral reefs of Samoa, and throughout the 

 South wSeas. This is Holocentrus praslin (Lacepede). It differs from 

 the typical Holocentrus ruber (Forskal) {H. alhoruber) only in its 

 intense colors, the deep red stripes being almost black. //. alhoruher 

 from Canton seems to be the same as H. ruber of the Red Sea.
