Axoclinus lucillae, known commonly as the Panama triplefin, is a species of triplefin blenny.[2] They occur in the eastern Pacific in shallow rocky and coral areas as deep as 20 metres (66 ft) from Mexico to Colombia.[1] The specific name honours Louise "Lulu" Miriam Parsons (1912โ€“2013), the first wife of George Washington Vanderbilt III, although the eponym is more suggestive that the species is named after their daughter, Lucille Margaret Vanderbilt (1938 - 2018).[3]
