(2009). Nuevos registros de peces costeros tropicales para el Perú.' Rev. Peru. Biol. 16(1): 033-041. Until ''P. carlhubbsi'' was described as a separate species in 1995, populations in these regions were included in '' P. falcifer''. When separated, the true ''P. falcifer'' is restricted to more northernly regions (off California and Mexico), and it has whitish-grey (not clear yellow) belly and flanks, the black line through the eye is paler and less distinct, and the angle of the inverted black "V" on the side is shallower.Adams, J.
