Enneanectes jordani, known commonly as the redbelly triplefin[2] and the mimic triplefin,[1] is a species of triplefin blenny from the northern Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico south as far as Venezuela.[2] The specific name honours the American ichthyologist David Starr Jordan (1851-1931).[3] Some authorities consider the synonym Enneanectes pectoralis to be a valid species.[1]
