Taxon Notes:

The genus is treated as masculine under Article 30.1.4.3 of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature; derivation is apparently from the Latin filium = thread + fer = bearing and considered here as an adjective with correct ending of fer and not ferus] (Australian Faunal Directory, accessed 12.9.2024). Includes taxon formerly identified as Bembrops indica (37 393006).
