Ecsenius randalli

Ecsenius randalli is a species of combtooth blenny in the genus Ecsenius. It is found the western central Pacific ocean, around Indonesia. It can reach a maximum length of 2 centimetres. Blennies in this species feed primarily off of plants, including benthic algae and weeds. The specific name of this blenny honours the American ichthyologist John E.
