Cheilinus abudjubbe, the Abudjubbe wrasse, is a species of ray-finned fish from the family Labridae, the wrasses.[1] It is found in the western Indian Ocean and the Red Sea.[2] This species was formally described by Eduard Rüppell in 1835, no type locality was given but it is thought to have been Jeddah. This taxon is regarded as a synonym of the tripletail wrasse (Cheilinus trilobatus) by some authorities.[3]
