Anderson (2018)
gave 66 as the number of species in the genus. Recent studies show the number to be 50. This new number is based on eight species, previously assigned to
Pseudanthias
,
being removed by
Gill (2022)
and reconsidered as members of the genera
Mirolabrichthys
Herre
(three species—
evansi
,
pascalus
,
tuka
) and
Nemanthias
Smith
(five species—
bartlettorum
,
bicolor
,
dispar
,
ignitus
,
regalis
),
the synonymyzing of two species (
albofasciatus
;
vizagensis
), the reassigning of one species (
xanthomaculatus
) to
Odontanthias
, the reclassification of eight others (
aurulentus
,
bimarginatus
,
flavoguttatus
,
lori
,
parvirostris
,
privitera
,
smithvanizi
,
unimarginatus
) to Gill’s new genus
Pyronotanthias,
and the addition of three species of
Pseudanthias
described since the publication of
Anderson, 2018
.
