Neoclinus stephensae
Species of fish
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Neoclinus stephensae, the yellowfin fringehead, is a species of chaenopsid blenny found in the eastern Pacific ocean. It can reach a maximum length of 10 centimetres (3.9 in) TL.[2] The specific name honours the collector of the type, the British-American conchologist Kate Stephens (ca. 1853–1954) who was Curator of Mollusks and Marine Invertebrates at San Diego Natural History Museum and who was over 100 years old at the time the species was described.[3]
