Abstract
Cirripectes auritus is described from the Line Islands in the
central Pacific, southeast Asia, and the western Indian Ocean. It is distinguished
from other Cirripectes in having a small black flap with a fringe of
tiny yellow cirri on either side of the nape, a low number of premaxillary and
dentary incisor teeth, 15-17 dorsal and 16-18 anal rays, and a reduced
number of cephalic sensory pores.
