Not one sailfin blenny, but two


In Reef Fish Identification: Florida, Caribbean, Bahamas, Paul Humann says sailfin blennies (Emblemaria pandionis) are "occasional" in Florida, the Bahamas and the Caribbean. The photo by Laurie Cullenward, Madison, WI, of two, not just one, sailfin blennies in the Caymans confirms Humann's added note that they "can be locally abundant."
