==Taxonomy== Blepsias was first proposed as a genus by the French zoologist Georges Cuvier with Trachinus cirrhosus, which had originally been described in 1814 by Peter Simon Pallas from Kamchatka, as the type species. The genus is included in the subfamily Hemitripterinae of the family Agonidae. Cuvier used a Greek name for a fish, as was his habit, for the name of the new genus.
