==Taxonomy== Callanthiidae was first proposed as a family name in 1907 by the American zoologist Henry Weed Fowler. This family was classified in the order Perciformes but the 5th edition of Fishes of the World classifies the family within the order Spariformes, although states that there is some doubt about the family's exact classification. Other workers have classified the family as incertae sedis within the series Eupercaria.
