The origin of the name ''Neoarius berneyi'' is Greek, with the genus name ''Neoarius'' coming from the words ''neos'' meaning new and ''arios'', meaning warlike or hostile, in reference to the well developed fin spines, and the species name, ''berneyi'', comes from the ornithologist F. L. Berney.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=''Arius berneyi'' * Ariidae * Cat-eLog * PlanetCatfish )〕 == Distribution and habitat== ''Neoarius berneyi'' is found around the South Pacific coast areas of Northern Australia and New Guinea.
