The rare boxfish, Aracana spilonota Gilbert, 1905, is redescribed on the basis of examination on the holotype and 11 additional specimens from the vicinity of Laysan Island, Hawaiian Islands. This species is characterized by having 6 ridges on the carapace and hexagonal body shape in cross section, a pair of recurved strong spines on the middle portion of the dorsolateral and ventrolateral ridges. The 6 ridges on the carapace and hexagonal body in cross section indicate that A. spilonota should be reassigned to Kentrocapros. Another rare boxfish, Kentrocapros flavofasciatus (Kamohara, 1938) is recorded for the first time from Australia.
