Oneirodidae (Dreamers)
Etymology: Oneirodes: Greek, 'oneiros' = a dream or dreamlike or out of a dream (suggesting this fish is so strange and marvelous that can exist only in dreams) (Ref. 86949); pietschi: Named in honor of Professor Theodore W. Pietsch of the College of Ocean and Fishery Sciences, University of Washington, Seattle, in recognition of his many contributions to our knowledge of ceratioid anglerfishes (Ref. 51069).
Eponymy: Dr Theodore ‘Ted’ Wells Pietsch III (d: 1945) was a professor of ichthyology at the University of Washington, Seattle (1978 onwards) and is an American systematist and evolutionary biologist especially known for his studies of anglerfishes. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.
