Current status: Valid as Abantennarius Schultz 1957. Antennariidae.

Allenichthys Pietsch [T. W.] 1984:38 Masc. Echinophryne glauerti Whitley 1944. Type by original designation (also monotypic). •Valid as Allenichthys Pietsch 1984 -- (Paxton et al. 1989:277 [ref. 12442], Gomon et al. 1994:285 [ref. 22532], Lindberg et al. 1997:214 [ref. 23547], Allen et al. 2006:638 [ref. 29066], Pietsch 2008:364 [ref. 30637], Arnold & Pietsch 2012:128 [ref. 31574], Arnold et al. 2014:539 [ref. 33553], Pietsch & Arnold 2020:348 [ref. 38284], Maile et al. 2025:28 [ref. 42110] in Rhycherinae).

Antennarius Daudin [F. M.] 1816:193 Masc. Lophius chironectes Lacepède 1798. Type by subsequent designation. Type designated by Bleeker 1865:5 [ref. 416]. Type above assumes species can in fact date to Lacepède 1798 [but probably is Lophius chironectes Latreille 1804]. Antennaria is a misspelling. •Valid as Antennarius Daudin 1816 -- (Pietsch 1984:33 [ref. 5380], Araga in Masuda et al. 1984:103 [ref. 6441], Pietsch 1986:366 [ref. 5704], Pietsch in Whitehead et al. 1986:1364 [ref. 13677], Paxton et al. 1989:277 [ref. 12442], Allen 1991:68 [ref. 21090], Daget in Lévêque et al. 1992:571 [ref. 21590], Lindberg et al. 1997:214 [ref. 23547], Castro-Aguirre et al. 1999:174 [ref. 24550], Pietsch 1999:2015 [ref. 24766], Pietsch 2003:1051 [ref. 17014], Castellanos-Galindo et al. 2006:206 [ref. 28944], Allen et al. 2006:638 [ref. 29066], Motomura 2009:40 [ref. 30446], Jawad & Al-Mamry 2009:1 [ref. 30663], Arnold & Pietsch 2012:128 [ref. 31574], Kottelat 2013:274 [ref. 32989], Stewart 2015:884 [ref. 34254], Motomura et al. 2017:55 [ref. 35490], Fricke et al. 2018:87 [ref. 35805], Golani & Fricke 2018:37 [ref. 36273], Brown et al. 2019:181 [ref. 36444], Fricke et al. 2019:72 [ref. 36673], Pietsch & Arnold 2020:71 [ref. 38284]).

Antennarius Commerson [P.] in Lacepède 1798:327 (footnote) Masc. Lophius commersonianus Jordan 1917. Validated by ICZN Opinion 24 (in 1910), but then suspended by Opinion 89 (1925). See discussion under Opinion 89 in Appendix B in Eschmeyer et al. 1990 [ref. 26735]. More research is need on the authorship of Antennarius. •In the synonymy of Antennarius Daudin 1816 -- (Pietsch 1984:33 [ref. 5380], Lindberg et al. 1997:214 [ref. 23547], Castro-Aguirre et al. 1999:174 [ref. 24550], Castellanos-Galindo et al. 2006:206 [ref. 28944], Kottelat 2013:274 [ref. 32989], Pietsch & Arnold 2020:71 [ref. 38284]).

Antennarius Cuvier [G.] (ex Commerson) 1816:310 Masc. Lophius commersonii Shaw 1804. Type by subsequent designation. Type designated by Jordan 1917:104 [ref. 2407]; designation of Antennarius princeps Commerson by Gill 1863:90 [ref. 1680] should be investigated. •Synonym of Antennarius Daudin 1816 (Oct.), Cuvier is Dec. 1816 -- (see Pietsch 1984:33 [ref. 5380], Lindberg et al. 1997:214 [ref. 23547], Castellanos-Galindo et al. 2006:206 [ref. 28944]).

Batrachopus Goldfuss [G. A.] 1820:110 Masc. Antennarius chironectes Commerson 1798. Type by being a replacement name. Replacement for Chironectes Cuvier [= Rafinesque 1814], preoccupied by Chironectes Illiger 1911 in Mammalia. Type species not researched. •Synonym of Histrio Fischer 1813 -- (Monod & Le Danois 1973:659 [ref. 7223], Pietsch 1984:37 [ref. 5380], Lindberg et al. 1997:221 [ref. 23547], Pietsch & Arnold 2020:174 [ref. 38284]).

Brachionichthys Bleeker [P.] 1854:121 Masc. Chironectes hirsutus of Bleeker (= Lophius hirsutus Lacepède 1804). Type by subsequent designation. Type designated by Bleeker 1865:5 [ref. 416]; Jordan 1919:263 [ref. 2410] wrongly lists C. politus Richardson as type. Described in more detail by Bleeker 1855:12, 21 [ref. 346]. •Valid as Brachionichthys Bleeker 1854 (often dated 1855) -- (Paxton et al. 1989:275 [ref. 12442], Gomon et al. 1994:283 [ref. 22532], Paxton et al. 2006:647 [ref. 28994], Last et al. 2007:53 [ref. 29447], Last & Gomon 2008:375 [ref. 30638], Last & Gledhill 2009:12 [ref. 30518]). Current status: Valid as Brachionichthys Bleeker 1854. Antennariidae: Brachionichthyinae.

Brachiopsilus Last [P. R.] & Gledhill [D. C.] 2009:20 Masc. Brachiopsilus ziebelli Last & Gledhill 2009. Type by original designation. •Valid as Brachiopsilus Last & Gledhill 2009. Current status: Valid as Brachiopsilus Last & Gledhill 2009. Antennariidae: Brachionichthyinae.

Capellaria Gistel [J.] 1848:VIII Fem. Lophius commersonianus Lacepède 1798. Type by being a replacement name. Apparently a replacement for Chironectes of Cuvier and authors, preoccupied by Chironectes Illiger in Mammalia. Type species uncertain, see account of Chironectes; Lacepède's 1798 treatment was in the vernacular. •Synonym of Antennarius Daudin 1816 -- (Kottelat 2013:274 [ref. 32989]). •Synonym of Histrio Fischer 1813 -- (Monod & Le Danois 1973:659 [ref. 7223], Pietsch 1984:37 [ref. 5380], Lindberg et al. 1997:221 [ref. 23547], Pietsch & Arnold 2020:175 [ref. 38284]).

Chironectes Cuvier [G.] 1817:418 et seq. Masc. Antennarius chironectes Anonymous 1798. Type by absolute tautonymy. Type as above if species is available from 1798; species mentioned by Cuvier on p. 433 (and perhaps made available). See Kottelat 2013:274 [ref. 32989] for the possible type species. Also in Oken 1817 (ex Cuvier) (see Gill 1903:966 [ref. 5768]). If Antennarius Commerson is available, then Chironectes Cuvier perhaps can be considered an unneeded replacement for it. Objectively invalid; preoccupied by Chironectes Illiger 1811 in Mammalia and Chironectes Rafinesque 1814 in recent fishes. •Synonym of Antennarius Daudin 1816 -- (Castellanos-Galindo et al. 2006:206 [ref. 28944], Kottelat 2013:274 [ref. 32989]). 1°Homonym. Current status: Synonym of Antennarius Daudin 1816. Antennariidae.

Chironectes Rafinesque [C. S.] 1814:19 Masc. Chironectes variegatus Rafinesque 1814. Type by monotypy. Also in Rafinesque 1815:92 [ref. 3584] as name only. Objectively invalid; preoccupied by Chironectes Illiger 1811 in mammals, replaced by Batrachopus Goldfus 1820. Cheironectes and Chironectus are incorrect subsequent spellings. •Synonym of Histrio Fischer 1813 -- (Pietsch 1984:37 [ref. 5380], Lindberg et al. 1997:221 [ref. 23547], Pietsch & Arnold 2020:174 [ref. 38284]). 1°Homonym.
