Ecsenius frontalis, known commonly as the smooth-fin blenny in Micronesia,[2] is a species of combtooth blenny in the genus Ecsenius.[2] It is found in coral reefs in the western Indian Ocean, in several gulfs in the Red Sea.[2] It can reach a maximum length of 8 centimetres.[2] Blennies in this species primarily feed off of plants, including benthic algae and weeds,[2] and are commercial aquarium fish.[2]
