Remarks. Hawaiian populations, which are genetically distinct ( Malay & Paulay 2010) and have a characteristic color pattern (Hoover 1999), most probably represent a different but yet undescribed species.

Taxonomy. Morgan (1991), Poupin (1997b), Poupin & McLaughlin (1998), McLaughlin et al. (2007)

Geographical distribution. Across Indo-West Pacific region.
