==Taxonomy== Diceratias was first proposed as a monospecific genus in 1887 by the German-born British herpetologist and ichthyologist Albert Günther when he described Diceratias bispinosus. When he described D. bispinosus Günther gave the type locality as off Banda Island at a depth of on the Challenger expedition of 1872-1876. This genus is one of two genera in the family Diceratiidae which the 5th edition of Fishes of the World classifies within the suborder Ceratioidei within the order Lophiiformes, the anglerfishes.
