Etymology: Leiognathus: Greek, leios = smooth + Greek, gnathos = jaw (Ref. 45335); robustus: Named for the robust nature and large size of the species when compared to all congeners except L. equulus and L. fasciatus; an adjective.

Clés d'identification | Morphologie | Morphométrie
Épines dorsales (Total) : 8; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 16; Épines anales: 3; Rayons mous anaux: 14. This species is distinguished from Leiognathus equulus (the only other species of leiognathid known to possess a non-sexually dimorphic light organ system) by the having no occipital hump (vs. pronounced hump); with a mildly sloping predorsal profile (vs. strongly curved, creating the image of an arched back); with frontal and lateral ethmoid ossifications that project anterodorsally and extend well anterior of the orbit to form a distinct preorbital protuberance (vs. slight bulge above orbit); and unexposed nuchal spine in lateral view (vs. exposed and projecting, particularly distally) (Ref. 76780).
