dct:abstract

Scorpaenopsis eschmeyeri, formerly tentatively identified as S. possi, is described as new from 17 specimens from Fiji, Chesterfield Islands in the Coral Sea, New Caledonia, and the southern Great Barrier Reef. It is separated from S. possi by the lack of the pretympanic spine that is unique to S. possi, by its smaller size (largest specimen, 142 mm SL, compared to 194 mm for S. possi), and by a longer head, snout, upper jaw, and predorsal length, compared to specimens of possi of the same size range. Scorpaena lacrimatus is described from a single specimen, 198 mm SL, taken in 400 m off Tahiti, Society Islands. It is distinct from other species of the genus by the combination of the following characters: deep body (depth 2.5 in SL), 17 pectoral rays, and 61 scales in longitudinal series.
