Description notes Text description not provided, only figure.
Own conclusion/opinion on its taxonomic status Gray’s (1850) trace shows a typical juvenile of H. lacer with distinctive spots surrounding dots. H. sandwichensis also presents a similar pattern but such species is restricted to Hawaii. Therefore, there is no doubt that H. adamsii Gray (1850) is a junior synonym of H. lacer .
