Etymology: Lycodes: Greek, lykos = wolf + Greek, suffix, oides = similar to (Ref. 45335); cortezianus: Named for the Cortez Bank, off San Diego, California (Ref. 4925).
Eponymy: The etymologies do not help, but we believe these species are named after the Sea of Cortez where the holotypes were caught, or in the case of the eelpout, Cortez Bank off San Diego, California. (Ref. 128868), visit book page.
