Taeniamia is a genus of cardinalfishes native to the Indian Ocean and the western Pacific Ocean.
Species[edit]
The 15 recognized species in this genus are:[3]
- Taeniamia ataenia (J. E. Randall & Satapoomin, 1999) (barless cardinalfish)
- Taeniamia biguttata (Lachner, 1951) (twinspot cardinalfish)
- Taeniamia bilineata (Gon & J. E. Randall, 1995)
- Taeniamia buruensis (Bleeker, 1856) (Buru cardinalfish)
- Taeniamia flavofasciata (Gon & J. E. Randall, 2003)
- Taeniamia fucata (Cantor, 1849) (orange-lined cardinalfish)
- Taeniamia kagoshimanus (Döderlein (de), 1883)
- Taeniamia leai (Waite, 1916) (Lea's cardinalfish)
- Taeniamia lineolata (G. Cuvier, 1828) (shimmering cardinal)
- Taeniamia macroptera (G. Cuvier, 1828) (dusky-tailed cardinalfish)
- Taeniamia melasma (Lachner & W. R. Taylor, 1960) (blackspot cardinalfish)
- Taeniamia mozambiquensis (J. L. B. Smith, 1961) (Mozambique cardinalfish)
- Taeniamia pallida (Gon & J. E. Randall, 1995)
- Taeniamia sansibaricus (Pfeffer, 1896)
- Taeniamia zosterophora (Bleeker, 1856) (girdled cardinalfish or blackbelted cardinalfish)
FishBase treats T. sansibaricus as synonymous with T. fucata.[4] but T. sansibaricus is recognized as valid by the Catalog of Fishes:[5]
