- Authors
Parenti, Paolo; Randall, John E.
- Abstract
The checklist of the species of the families Labridae and Scaridae is updated. After the publication of the annotated checklist (Parenti & Randall 2000) the species of Labridae increased from 453 to 504 and genera from 68 to 70, whereas Scaridae increased from 88 to 99 species. Altogether this account lists 53 species that are new to science, while 14 species have been resurrected from synonymy and 5 are now regarded as junior synonyms. Comments on the status of 20 nominal species and notes on undescribed species are also included.
