The species has been treated as <i>Lophotus lacepede</i>, <i>L. capellei</i> or <i>L. guntheri</i>. We follow Craig et al. (2004) in use of the name <i>L. guntheri</i> for the south Pacific species. Because there may be two species in Australia, further work is needed on the genus.","habitat":"Pelagic, Epipelagic (0-200m, Oceanic)<br>","NameVerifiedSource":"","Parent_Id":37270902,"scientificName":"Lophotus guntheri","kingdom":"Animalia","order":"Lampriformes","otherVernacularNames":"crested bandfish","Reference":"","vernacularName":"Crested Bandfish","ChildCodes":"","RecordCreatedOn":"1997-01-01","scientificNameID_WoRMS":"urn:lsid:marinespecies.org:taxname:126523","family":"Lophotidae","standardName":"Crested Bandfish (AS5300)","class":"Actinopterygii","scientificNameID_AFD":"urn:lsid:biodiversity.org.au:afd.taxon:b3d96e38-db0c-4ff7-922f-deebd8e80e8e","CAAB_status":"Valid"}
