Preserved colours: body pale, slightly duskier on dorsum, darker blotches corresponding to saddles described above, most prominent a rectangular blotch below anterior fifth of dorsal fin base at level of upper third of eye, several others at same level, somewhat paired, below nape, below rear end of dorsal fin base, and below adipose fin; second row of horizontally aligned blotches closer to dorsal profile of side, just above and behind each blotch of first row, blotches appearing somewhat like obliquely slanted ‘H’ shaped marks in some; opercle mostly dark dusky; fins pale.

Etymology. The name surrubea, Latin for “reddish”, refers to the reddish hue that is a characteristic of this species

Distribution. Apparently confined to the Hawaiian Ridge in the north-central Pacific ( Fig. 3 View FIGURE 3 ) from at least the Equator Seamount (29° 42' N, 179° 22' E; Borets, 1986 as H. japonicus ) to off the island of Hawaii (20° 01' N, 156° 44' W) at depths of 170–510 m ( Chave & Mundy, 1994). A demersal species on sandy bottom.

Comments. The first published record of a specimen attributable to this species is that of Strasburg (1966), who identified as an immature female of Hime japonicus (USNM 198224) a 219 mm SL fish taken on handline at a depth of 780 feet (238 m) between Lanai and Kahoolawe, islands near the center of the main Hawaiian group. He provided brief morphological details and a colour description, stating it agreed “with that of the Japanese specimen figured by Kamohara (1955: pl. 9), except that his (Kamohara’s) fish has only weak indications of spotting on the dorsal, caudal, and pectoral fins, and none at all on the cheeks and opercles”. The implied absence of these markings in the illustration is likely attributable to the rapid fading of red pigmentation after death, which Strasburg mentioned in describing the colour of his specimen in preservation, and as evidenced by the presence of red markings in the colour images of fresh female Hime japonica in Masuda et al. (1975: P.20-A), Masuda et al. (1984: pl. 61B) and Matsunuma et al. (2008: fig. 2). Although Strasburg described the top of the head, snout and opercle of his specimen as olive-brown, his reference to the upper sides as brownish-red identifies the reddish accent that is a prominent feature of this species. By contrast, the dorsum of H. japonica is tan to pale brown with considerably darker brown markings.

As implied in the above synonymy, a number of authors waivered over the recognition of this species almost from its discovery. Evidently, Struhsaker after first considering it new seemed to question that opinion as a description was never published. Of those investigating the problem, Carl Hubbs and Doug Hoese appear to have been closest to providing a name as revealed in historical correspondence (circa 1969–1972; Hoese, pers. comm.), but a description never eventuated. Interestingly in his correspondence, Hubbs regarded Hime as a natural assemblage separate from Aulopus and Latropriscis, but considered the three to be subgeneric assemblages within Aulopus rather than distinct genera.

In general form H. surrubea is very similar to H. japonica , especially in the size and shape of the dorsal fin of males, the feature that varies most noticeably between species of the genus ( Fig. 1 View FIGURE 1 ). The new species, however, has a shorter caudal peduncle (length 13.4–18.7, mean 16.0 vs 16.8–19.1, mean 17.9% SL; morphometric values for H. japonica for this and the following characters are mostly those of Gomon et al., 2013: table 3), slightly larger head (length 30.1–33.3, mean 31.8 vs 29.1–31.5, mean 30.3% SL), larger eye, especially relative to head size (orbital diameter 10.1–11.8, mean 10.9 vs 8.4–10.5, mean 9.5% SL, and 31.2– 38.1, mean 34.3 vs 28.8–35.5, mean 31.4% HL), and slightly smaller pectoral fin (19.1–22.1, mean 20.6 vs 20.9–23.7, mean 22.0% SL) and pelvic fin (23.7–29.5, mean 26.1 vs 21.7–30.3, mean 26.1% SL). The pelvic fin of males and females of H. surrubea are of similar size, while in H. japonica the fin of females is consistently smaller than that of males (21.7–26.1, mean 24.6 vs 25.9–30.3, mean 27.7% SL, respectively).

The English vernacular for H. surrubea currently in the literature, “Japanese Thread-sail Fish”, was obviously intended for H. japonica , with which it was thought to be conspecific. To eliminate confusion, we propose “Rosy Flagfin” as a replacement name for the Hawaiian species, which more accurately reflects its appearance. Species of the family are known as flagfins, threadsails, sergeant bakers and aulopus in various parts of the world.

The extremely large numbers of specimens of this species in museum collections, most having been taken with demersal trawls during surveys of the Hawaiian Islands by the R/V Townsend Cromwell in the late 1960s, imply a habitat preference for soft substrate by this species. Most other species are represented by far fewer collection specimens with associated collection data indicating a hard, less easily sampled substrate.
