Alloclinus holderi, known commonly as the Island kelpfish in the United Kingdom and the United States, is a species of labrisomid blenny, and the only species in the genus Alloclinus. It is a subtropical blenny known from California, U.S.A., to Mexico, in the eastern Pacific Ocean. It was originally described by Lauderbach in 1907, as Starksia holderi, but was redescribed by D.S. Jordan and E.C. Starks. Blennies in this species can reach a maximum length of 10 centimetres, and swim at a maximum depth of 49 metres.
