''Gillellus inescatus'', the flagfin stargazer,〔Williams, J.T., 2002 (26522 ) (''Three new species of blennioid shore fishes discovered at Navassa Island, Caribbean Sea.'' ) Aqua, Journal of Ichthyology and Aquatic Biology v. 6 (no. 1): 11-16.〕 is a species of tropical sand stargazer native to the Caribbean sea. ==Etymology== The specific epithet "''inescatus''" is derived from the Latin word "''inescare''" (to bait). It refers to the structure at the back of the head and front of the spine, shaped like an anglerfish's esca, which Williams theorizes may be used as bait for luring prey, in a style similar to anglerfish, or as a means to attract potential mates.〔 The species' common name, "flagfin stargazer" refers to the structure's resemblance to a small flag atop the blenny's spine.〔
