Etymology: Hippocampus: Greek, ippos = horse + Greek,kampe = curvature (Ref. 45335).
More on author: Duméril.
Issue
This species is considered as a synonym of Hippocampus kuda Weber, 1913 according to Lourie et al., 2016 (Ref. 115213); but was validated by Stiller et al., 2022 (Ref. 127687, 128218).
