Species

The 15 recognized species in this genus are:[3]

  • Taeniamia ataenia (J. E. Randall & Satapoomin, 1999) (barless cardinalfish)
  • Taeniamia biguttata (Lachner, 1951) (twinspot cardinalfish)
  • Taeniamia bilineata (Gon & J. E. Randall, 1995)
  • Taeniamia buruensis (Bleeker, 1856) (Buru cardinalfish)
  • Taeniamia flavofasciata (Gon & J. E. Randall, 2003)
  • Taeniamia fucata (Cantor, 1849) (orange-lined cardinalfish)
  • Taeniamia kagoshimanus (Döderlein (de), 1883)
  • Taeniamia leai (Waite, 1916) (Lea's cardinalfish)
  • Taeniamia lineolata (G. Cuvier, 1828) (shimmering cardinal)
  • Taeniamia macroptera (G. Cuvier, 1828) (dusky-tailed cardinalfish)
  • Taeniamia melasma (Lachner & W. R. Taylor, 1960) (blackspot cardinalfish)
  • Taeniamia mozambiquensis (J. L. B. Smith, 1961) (Mozambique cardinalfish)
  • Taeniamia pallida (Gon & J. E. Randall, 1995)
  • Taeniamia sansibaricus (Pfeffer, 1896)
  • Taeniamia zosterophora (Bleeker, 1856) (girdled cardinalfish or blackbelted cardinalfish)

FishBase treats T. sansibaricus as synonymous with T. fucata.[4] but T. sansibaricus is recognized as valid by the Catalog of Fishes:[5]

gollark: There are probably lots of ideas for calculators which haven't been explored much because they're "really stupid" or "mathematically impossible" or "against the laws of physics" or "entirely useless". NO MORE, I say.
gollark: Or use low power hardware and run it entirely off solar or something, there are many possibilities.
gollark: Or, with a highish res display, G R A P H I N G.
gollark: Maybe you can get some kind of 48-character-or-so letters+numbers+some punctuation keypad and have a programmable one which is actually not terrible to use.
gollark: A custom calculator thing *would* be a fairly cool electronics/computer project though.
