Channelled Rockfish
The channelled rockfish (''Setarches guentheri''), also known as the deepwater scorpionfish, is a species of marine ray-finned fish, belonging to the subfamily Setarchinae, the deep-sea bristly scorpionfishes, part of the family Scorpaenidae. It has a wide distribution in tropical and subtropical oceans. Taxonomy The channelled rockfish was first formally described in 1862 by the English zoologist James Yate Johnson with the type locality given as Madeira. In his description Johnson placed the new species in the new monotypic genus ''Setarches''. Subsequent workers added other species to this genus but in 1966 William N. Eschmeyer and Bruce B. Collette synonymised most of these with ''S. guentheri'' making ''Setarches'' consist only of this species and ''S. longimanus''. This was later re-examined and 3 species were accepted as belonging to the genus ''Setarches'': '' S. armata'', ''S. guentheri'' and '' S. longimanus''.

James Yate Johnson
James Yate Johnson (1820, in Kendal, Westmorland – 2 February 1900, in Funchal) was an English naturalist. Johnson lived in Madeira from around 1851, studied marine fish, crustacea, sea anemones and sponges and terrestrial spiders, flowering plants and mosses. He collected specimens for other naturalists; for instance, George Busk, who in 1859 wrote "Zoophytology: On some Madeiran Polyzoa." Collected by J. Yates Johnson, Esq. in the ''Quarterly Journal of Microscopical Science'', vol. 7, pp. 65–67. He discovered '' Halargyreus johnsonii'' and ''Melanocetus johnsonii'' during his time in Madeira. Johnson explored the São Vicente Caves after being informed of their existence by locals on Madeira in 1885. The caves were opened to the public on 1 October 1996, being one of the first caves of volcanic origins to be opened to the public in Portugal. He was the son of John Henry Johnson and Ann Yate, also brother of John Henry Johnson (patent attorney). Works Partial list ...

Monotypic Taxon
In biology, a monotypic taxon is a taxonomic group (taxon) that contains only one immediately subordinate taxon. A monotypic species is one that does not include subspecies or smaller, infraspecific taxa. In the case of genera, the term "unispecific" or "monospecific" is sometimes preferred. In botanical nomenclature, a monotypic genus is a genus in the special case where a genus and a single species are simultaneously described. In contrast, an oligotypic taxon contains more than one but only a very few subordinate taxa. Examples Just as the term ''monotypic'' is used to describe a taxon including only one subdivision, the contained taxon can also be referred to as monotypic within the higher-level taxon, e.g. a genus monotypic within a family. Some examples of monotypic groups are: Plants * In the order Amborellales, there is only one family, Amborellaceae and there is only one genus, '' Amborella'', and in this genus there is only one species, namely ''Amborella trichopoda ...

Platycephalidae
The Platycephalidae are a family of marine fish, most commonly referred to as flatheads. They are relatives of the popular lionfish, belonging to the order Scorpaeniformes. Taxonomy Platycephalidae was first proposed as a family in 1839 by the English naturalist William John Swainson. The 5th edition of ''Fishes of the World'' classifies this family within the suborder Platycephaloidei in the order Scorpaeniformes. Other authorities differ and do not consider the Scorpaeniformes to be a valid order because the Perciformes is not monophyletic without the taxa within the Scorpaeniformes being included within it. These authorities consider the Platycephalidae to belong to the suborder Platycephaloidei, along with the families Bembridae, Parabembridae, Hoplichthyidae and Plectrogeniidae within the Perciformes. Genera Platycephalidae has the following genera classified within it: Platycephalidae has been divided into as many as 5 subfamilies by some authors but Fishes of the Wor ...

Lythrichthys Eulabes
''Lythrichthys'', the red deepwater scorpionfishes, is a genus of marine ray-finned fish, belonging to the subfamily Setarchinae, the deep-sea bristly scorpionfishes, part of the family Scorpaenidae. They are native to the Pacific Ocean. Taxonomy ''Lythrichthys'' was first described as a genus in 1904 by the American ichthyologists David Starr Jordan and Edwin Chapin Starks as a monotypic genus for ''Lythrichthys eulabes'' which they described with a type locality given as off Ose Point in Suruga Bay in Japan. ''L. eulabes'' was later placed in the genus ''Setarches'' and ''Lythrichthys'' became a synonym of that taxon. However, in 2021 Wada, Kai & Motomura resurrected the genus, added ''L. cypho'' (which had been treated as a synonym of''Setarches longimanus''), as well as ''L. longimanus'', and described two new species. This left the channelled rockfish (''Setarches guentheri'') as the only species in the now monotypic ''Setarches'' As of January 2022 this change has been ...

Type Species
In zoological nomenclature, a type species (''species typica'') is the species name with which the name of a genus or subgenus is considered to be permanently taxonomically associated, i.e., the species that contains the biological type specimen(s). Article 67.1 A similar concept is used for suprageneric groups and called a type genus. In botanical nomenclature, these terms have no formal standing under the code of nomenclature, but are sometimes borrowed from zoological nomenclature. In botany, the type of a genus name is a specimen (or, rarely, an illustration) which is also the type of a species name. The species name that has that type can also be referred to as the type of the genus name. Names of genus and family ranks, the various subdivisions of those ranks, and some higher-rank names based on genus names, have such types.

Synonym (taxonomy)
The Botanical and Zoological Codes of nomenclature treat the concept of synonymy differently. * In botanical nomenclature, a synonym is a scientific name that applies to a taxon that (now) goes by a different scientific name. For example, Linnaeus was the first to give a scientific name (under the currently used system of scientific nomenclature) to the Norway spruce, which he called ''Pinus abies''. This name is no longer in use, so it is now a synonym of the current scientific name, ''Picea abies''. * In zoology, moving a species from one genus to another results in a different binomen, but the name is considered an alternative combination rather than a synonym. The concept of synonymy in zoology is reserved for two names at the same rank that refers to a taxon at that rank - for example, the name ''Papilio prorsa'' Linnaeus, 1758 is a junior synonym of ''Papilio levana'' Linnaeus, 1758, being names for different seasonal forms of the species now referred to as ''Araschnia le ...
