Etymology: Bodianus: Bodianus after Bodiano or Pudiano, from the Portuguese pudor, meaning modesty (Jordan & Evermann, 1896).; leucosticticus: The subgenus Peneverreo come from the Latin pene for near and verres for boar, in reference to the close relationships and similarity of colour patterns between members of this subgenus and those of the subgenus Verreo (Ref. 75973).
