Cirripectes
''Cirripectes'' is a large genus of combtooth blennies found throughout the Pacific and Indian oceans. ''Cirripectes biconvexus'', an otolith based fossil species from the Burdigalian (Miocene) of southwestern India (Quilon Formation) is probably the earliest record of this genus. Species There are currently 24 recognized species in this genus: * ''Cirripectes alboapicalis'' ( J. D. Ogilby, 1899) (Blackblotch blenny) * ''Cirripectes alleni'' J. T. Williams, 1993 (Kimberley blenny) * ''Cirripectes auritus'' Carlson, 1981 (Blackflap blenny) * '' Cirripectes castaneus'' (Valenciennes, 1836) (Chestnut eyelash-blenny) * ''Cirripectes chelomatus'' J. T. Williams & Maugé, 1984 (Lady Musgrave blenny) * ''Cirripectes filamentosus'' (Alleyne & W. J. Macleay, 1877) (Filamentous blenny) * ''Cirripectes fuscoguttatus'' Strasburg & L. P.

Cirripectes Heemstraorum
''Cirripectes heemstraorum'', the yellowtail blenny, is a species of combtooth blenny from the family Blenniidae. It is found in the Indian Ocean where it is known from three South African specimens and an Indonesian specimen. It is distinguished from its congeners by the nape having an extensive black flap on both sides of its neck; 10-13 cirri which are found between the neck flaps; an entire dorsal fin; 5-6 cirri above the eye, 6-8 cirri on the nose; the males have small dark spots on their body towards the tail which merge to form short black stripes on caudal peduncle, in life the females have a brilliant yellow caudal fin while in the males only the outer half of the tail is bright yellow. The specific name honours the South African ichthyologists Phillip C. Heemstra and Elaine Heemstra both of the South African Institute for Aquatic Biodiversity. They collected all the known South African specimens of this species and took a photograph of a specimen which showed its ...
