Argyrozona is a monospecific genus of marine ray-finned fish belonging to the family Sparidae, the seabreams and progies. Its only species is Argyrozona argyrozona, the carpenter seabream or doppie, which is endemic to the waters off southern South Africa.
Tazonomy
Argyrozona was first proposed as a monospecific genus in 1938 by the South African ichthyologist James Leonard Brierley Smith. The only species in the genus was Dentex argyrozona,[3] which had been first formally described in 1830 by the French zoologist Achille Valenciennes who gave its type locality as the Cape of Good Hope in South Africa.[4] This taxon is placed in the family Sparidae within the order Spariformes by the 5th edition of Fishes of the World.[5] Some authorities classify this genus in the subfamily Denticinae,[6] but the 5th edition of Fishes of the World does not recognise subfamilies within the Sparidae.[5]
Etymology
Argyrozona is a tautonym of Dentex argyrozona. The specific name argyrozona means "silver band" and, according to J. L. B. Smith, is an allusion to the 5 or 6 white horizontal bands with gold and silver tints that appear immediately following death.[7]
