Istiblennius steindachneri is a species of combtooth blenny found in the western Indian ocean. It can reach a maximum of 11 cm (4.3 in) in SL.[2] The identity of the person honoured in this blenny's specific name was not stated by Pfeffer in his description but it is almost certainly the Austrian ichthyologist Franz Steindachner (1834-1919).[3]
