| Cita | Pages 157-8: "We should also mention the probable invalid name Xyrichtys javanicus (Bleeker, 1862). De Beaufort (1940: 66) wrote: "Bleeker described this species after a specimen labelled "Java" and belonging to the old collection of the Leiden Museum. It shows strong likeness to species from the Atlantic and probably the locality mentioned on the label is wrong. It has never been found again. However, Dor (1970: 22) reported one preserved specimen, 106 mm SL, as Hemipteronotus javanicus from Eilat, Gulf of Aqaba. Additional Red Sea specimens should be obtained, and the life color determined." |
