Cirrhilabrus walshi is a species of wrasse native to the American Samoa. This species can reach a standard length of 6.3 cm (2.5 in). It inhabits coral reefs and it can be found at depths from 37 to 46 m (121 to 151 ft). The specific name honours Fenton Walsh, at Cairns Marine, a marine aquarium-fish exporter in Queensland, Australia,[2] who collected the type.[3] in 1989.
