Onigocia Oligolepis
''Onigocia'' is a genus of marine ray-finned fishes belonging to the Family (biology), family Platycephalidae, the flatheads. They are found in the Indo-Pacific region. Taxonomy ''Onigoia'' was first proposed as a genus in 1913 by the American ichthyologists David Starr Jordan and William Francis Thompson with ''Platycephalus macrolepis'', which had been Species description, described in 1925 by Pieter Bleeker from Nagasaki, as its type species. This genus is Taxonomy (biology), classified within the family Playtcephalidae, the flatheads which the 5th edition of ''Fishes of the World'' classifies within the suborder Platycephaloidei in the Order (biology), order Scorpaeniformes. The genus name ''Onigocia'' is a latinisation of ''onigogochi'' which translates as “devil flathead” the Japanese language, Japanese common name for ''O. spinosa''. ''Gochi'', which is also spelled ''kochi'', is a general name in Japanese for flatheads and dragonets. Species There are currently 9 reco ...

Platycephaloidei
Platycephaloidei is a suborder of ray-finned fishes, part of the order Scorpaeniformes, and includes the flatheads, ghost flatheads and sea robins. Taxonomy Platycephaloidei was first recognised and named as a taxonomic grouping in 1943 by the Japanese ichthyologist Kiyomatsu Matsubara. The 5th edition of '' Fishes of the World'' classifies this group as a suborder within the Scorpaeniformes. Other authorities classify the families that make up Patycephaloidei in the 5th edition of ''Fishes of the World'' as two suborders; the Platycephaloidei, consisting of the families Bembridae, Parabembridae (separated from Bembridae), Platycephalidae, Hoplichthyidae and Plectrogeniidae (treated as a subfamily of Scorpaenidae in ''Fishes of the World'') and the Trigloidei, including the families Triglidae and Peristediidae. The name of the suborder is taken from that of the type genus ''Platycephalus'' which means "flat head". Families and subfamilies The following families and subfami ...

Charles Tate Regan
Charles Tate Regan FRS (1 February 1878 – 12 January 1943) was a British ichthyologist, working mainly around the beginning of the 20th century. He did extensive work on fish classification schemes. Born in Sherborne, Dorset, he was educated at Derby School and Queens' College, Cambridge and in 1901 joined the staff of the Natural History Museum, where he became Keeper of Zoology, and later director of the entire museum, in which role he served from 1927 to 1938. Regan was elected Fellow of the Royal Society in 1917. Regan mentored a number of scientists, among them Ethelwynn Trewavas, who continued his work at the British Natural History Museum. Species Among the species he described is the Siamese fighting fish (''Betta splendens''). In turn, a number of fish species have been named ''regani'' in his honour: *A Thorny Catfish '' Anadoras regani'' (Steindachner, 1908) *The Dwarf Cichlid '' Apistogramma regani'' *'' Apogon regani'' *A Catfish '' Astroblepus regani'' * ...
