Etymology: Hephaestus: Taken from Haphaistos, the God of fire in the Greek mythology; 1658 (Ref. 45335).
Eponymy: In Greek mythology, Hephaestus was the god of fire, blacksmiths, metal-workers and other artisans. De Vis gives no reason for his choice of name. The Corydoras was so named due to the red (fiery) colour of its fins and parts of its body. Charles Thomas Johnston Adamson (1901–1978) emigrated from England to Australia (1923).

Extremely common in lake shores; juveniles occur in the shallows close to shore, whereas adults form large schools over deep water adjacent to rocky cliffs. Main food of the Foi people who live along the shores of Lake Kutubu (Ref. 2847). Eggs are guarded and fanned by the male parent (Ref. 205).
