• Eviota sebreei Jordan, D.S. & Seale, A. 1906. The fishes of Samoa. Description of the species found in the Archipelago, with a provisional checklist of the fishes of Oceania. Bulletin of the Bureau of Fisheries (U.S.) for 1905 25: 173-455 figs 1-111 pls 33-53 [390, fig. 80].

  Type data:

   Holotype USNM 51765, Apia, Samoa.

 

Introduction

Tornabene et al. (2016) described Eviota punyit, which can only be separated from E. sebreei from DNA and live coloration. Consequently they regarded the Australia records of E. sebreei as uncertain. We include the species here based on photos on inaturalist from north of Lizard Island and off Townsville. Records from Western Australia require confirmation.
