Etymology: francesae: Named for Frances H. Miller (Ref. 29410).
Eponymy: Frances Voorhees Hubbs ‘Fran’ Miller (1919–1987) was an American ichthyologist – which seems hardly surprising as both her parents and her younger brother were ichthyologists, as was her future husband. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

ຄີຫຼັງຂອງປາ (ຄີອ່ອນ) (ທັງໝົດ) : 15 - 17; ຄີກົ້ນຂອງປາ: 14 - 15; ສັດທີ່ມີກະດູກສັນຫຼັງ: 30 - 35. Males with a less prominent notch in dorsal fin; no irregular black spots on sides of body; a gray cast superimposed on gold body and gray fins. Head wedged shaped; upturned lips; proportionately larger head and orbit. Tendency to fewer lateral scales, predorsal scales and vertebrae. Male with fins larger, especially dorsal and anal fins; greater prepelvic length, head and body depths; first 6 anal-fin rays small folding into fleshy dermal pocket supported by 7th ray; dorsal fin notched, first 4-5 rays separated slightly from the rest.
An experimental fish. Pinnate diatoms (largely benthic), filamentous algae indicate that this species grazes rocks and plant surfaces along or near the bottom (Ref. 29410).
