Lactophrys (now Acanthostracion) polygonius (Poey 1876), the Honeycomb Cowfish. Tropical west Atlantic. To about nineteen inches in length. Cozumel 4/09 

 

Acanthurus coeruleus Bloch & Schneider 1801, the Atlantic Blue Tang; though not as dazzlingly beautiful as the other two "Blue Tangs" (Paracanthurus hepatus & Acanthurus leucosternon) this Caribbean surgeon makes a fine aquarium addition. One of a handful of Acanthurus that are overall yellow as juveniles, the Atlantic Blue Tang stays small enough for modest sized aquariums.  Cozumel 4/09 
 
Aluterus scripta (Osbeck 1785), the Scrawled Filefish. Circumtropical. Sold in the trade occasionally, but gets way too big.  Cozumel 4/09 
 
Canthigaster rostrata (Bloch 1786), simply called the Sharpnose Puffer. Tropical west Atlantic species, common and inexpensive. To five inches. Eats mainly seagrass (and some invertebrates) in the wild.  Cozumel 4/09
