Labrisomus jenkinsi, Jenkin's blenny, is a species of labrisomid blenny endemic to the Galapagos Islands where it seems to inhabit areas with rocky substrates. This species can reach a length of 13 centimetres (5.1 in) TL. The specific name honours Oliver Peebles Jenkins (1850-1935), who was a professor of physiology at Stanford University.
