Callanthiidae (Splendid perches)
Etymology: Grammatonotus: Greek, gramma, atos = signal, mark + Greek, noton = back (Ref. 45335); crosnieri: Probably named for Crosnier.
Eponymy: Dr Alain Georges Paul Crosnier (1930-2021) was a French biologist and carcinologist at the MNHN, Paris, who published much on crustaceans. He initiated the deep trawling surveys off Madagascar (1970s). (Ref. 128868), visit book page.
