Synodus rubromarmoratus Russell & Cressey, 1979
Redmarbled lizardfish, 20cm

Although this has some of the characteristics of Synodus binotatus, it exactly matches at least one of the figures in Fishbase for S. rubromarmoratus. If the photo on Fishbase is correctly identified, this must be the same. Our specimen was found in a lagoon patch of Halimeda on a sandy lagoon reef.
