Etymology: Trachyscorpia: Greek, trachys, -eia, y = rough + Greek, skorpis, idos = a kind of fish without identification (Ref. 45335); longipedicula: The specific name longipedicula is derived from the Latin longus meaning long, and pediculus meaning foot, in reference to the long pelvic-fin spine and rays, and first anal-fin spine, compared with the short spines and rays of T.
