| - Malthopsis jordani Gilbert, 1905 was described from the Hawaiian Islands a: id subsequently recorded from the western Pacific. A review of the species is provided. Examination of all known specimens of this species revealed that M. jordani is endemic to the Hawaiian Is ands and specimens outside the range represent a new species. Malthopsis gigas sp. nov., previously misidentified as M. jordani, is described from 111 specimens widely distributed in the Indo-Pacific Ocean. The new species differs from its congeners in having a relatively strong and long rostrum ([overhead single bar]x=8.6% SL); body heavily covered with strong conical bucklers, with numerous small hi bucklers densely covering the space between principal bucklers on the dorsal surface; and the reclined anal fin that extends beyond the caudal fin base. The new species is also the largest member of the genus, reaching size up to 136.4 mm SL.
