Helcogramma randalli, Randall's triplefin, is a species of triplefin blenny in the genus Helcogramma.[2] It was described by Jeffrey T. Williams and Jeffrey C. Howe in 2003[3] and named it in honour of the ichthyologist John Ernest Randall of the Bishop Museum in Honolulu who collected all of the known specimens.[4] This species occurs in the western Pacific Ocean and is endemic to the islands of central Indonesia such as Bali, Lombok, Timor and Komodo.[1]
