Ematops randalli is a species of viviparous brotula found in the Pacific Ocean around Samoa and Vanuatu where it inhabits reef environments. This species grows to a length of 4.2 centimetres (1.7 in) SL.[2] The specific name honours the United States ichthyologist John E. Randall of the Bishop Museum who assisted in the collection of the type.[3]
