Stylocheilus rickettsi

Uncommon:

Stylocheilus striatus has historically been considered to have a pantropical distribution, but morphological studies and molecular analysis have shown it to be a species complex consisting of three allopatric species; S. striatus is retained for the populations in the Indo-Pacific region, S. rickettsi is used for those in the eastern Pacific region, and S. polyomma for those in the western Atlantic region.^[4]
