Antigoniidae (Deepbody boarfishes)
Etymology: Antigonia: Daughter of Oedipus and Jocasta, who defied her uncle, king Creon, by performing funeral rites over her brother Polynices and was condemned to be immured in a cave (Ref. 45335).
Eponymy: Lowe did not explain his reason for coining this name, but presumably it is derived from mythology as FISHBASE suggests: Antigone was the daughter of Oedipus and Jocasta, who defied her uncle, King Creon, by performing funeral rites over her brother [...] Eos in Greek mythology was the goddess of the dawn. In zoology, her name is generally applied to species that have ‘rosy’ coloration, sometimes combined with orange or yellowish hues that might be reminiscent of a sunrise.
