Etymology: Taeniamia: Name from feminine Latin noun 'taenia' meaning ribbon or band; and feminine Greek noun 'Amia' meaning a fish, often used with cardinalfishes genera. Here as Taeniamia referring to the vertical wide bars and near vertical to curved narrow bars as lines on most of the species in this genus; flavofasciata: From the Latin word 'flavus' for yellow and 'fascia' for bar or stripe, referring to the dusky yellow bars on the body.
