sub class Elasmobranchii (ฉลามและกระเบน) (sharks and rays) > Orectolobiformes (Carpet sharks) > Hemiscylliidae (Bamboo sharks)
Etymology: Hemiscyllium:hemi-, from hemisys (Gr.), half, presumably referring to similarity and/ or close affinity to Scyllium (=Scyliorhinus, now in Scyliorhinidae) and/or Chiloscyllium; skylion, Greek for dogfish or small shark (See ETYFish); halmahera:Named for Halmahera, Indonesia, type locality (See ETYFish).
This species is distinguished by its colour pattern, generally brown with numerous clusters of mainly 2-3 dark polygonal spots; widely scattered white spots in the matrix between dark clusters; less than 10 large dark spots on the interorbital/snout region; a pair of large dark marks on the ventral surface of the head; a fragmented post-cephalic mark consisting of a large U-shaped dark spot with a more or less continuous white margin on the lower half, followed by a vertical row of 3, smaller clusters of 2-3 polygonal dark marks (Ref. 94061).
