Etymology: Tomiyamichthys: occurring on sand-rubble bottoms in the vicinity of coral reefs; smithi: Named for Professor J.L.B. Smith, for his contribution of the first description of this genus as well as his great ichthyological achievements for the southern hemisphere (Ref. 51116).
Eponymy: Dr James Leonard Brierley Smith (1897–1968) was a South African chemist and ichthyologist most famous for identifying a stuffed fish as a coelacanth, then thought to have been extinct for millions of years. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.
