Neosebastes Capricornis
''Neosebastes'' is a genus of marine ray-finned fishes, belonging to the subfamily Neosebastinae, the gurnard scorpionfishes, part of the family Scorpaenidae. These fishes are found in the Indian and Pacific Ocean. Taxonomy Neosebastes was first described as a genus in 1867 by the French zoologist Alphonse Guichenot. In 1876 Pieter Bleeker designated Scorpaena panda, which had been described by John Richardson in 1842 from Cockburn Sound in Western Australia, as the type species of the genus. The genus name is a compound of ''neo'' meaning "new" and ''Sebastes'', as, when he coined the name, Guichenot thought that the new genus was closely related to or was a subgenus of the genus '' Sebastes''. Species There are currently 12 recognized species in this genus: * '' Neosebastes bougainvillii'' (G.

Allan Riverstone McCulloch
Allan Riverstone McCulloch (20 June 1885 – 1 September 1925) was a prominent Australian ichthyologist. Born in Sydney, Australia, McCulloch began his scientific career at the age of 13 as an unpaid assistant to Edgar Ravenswood Waite in the Australian Museum where Waite encouraged McCulloch to study zoology. Three years later, he was employed as a "mechanical assistant", and five years after that, as curator of fishes, a post he held until his death. McCulloch collected and published prolifically; from his first paper in 1906 (published in ''Records of the Australian Museum''), no year passed without his making a contribution to science, and he wrote over 100 original papers in all, many including his own illustrations. McCulloch travelled widely for his collections, including trips to Queensland, Lord Howe Island, New Guinea, the Great Barrier Reef and various Pacific islands. His major research interest was in fish, but he was also given the responsibility of the crust ...
