Abstract
Five eastern Pacific species of the genus Haemulon Cuvier are described, their color pattern and dentition illustrated, and a key presented for their identification. Lythrulon Jordan and Swain and Orthostoechus Gill are synonymized with Haemulon. Haemulon scudderi Gill, Haemulon sexfasciatum Gill, Haemulon flavigattatum Gill, and Haemulon maculicauda (Gill) are found exclusively in the Pacific while Haemulon steindachneri (Jordan and Gilbert) is found both in the Atlantic and the Pacific.
