Pomacentridae is a family of perciform fish, comprising the damselfishes and clownfishes. They are primarily marine, while a few species inhabit freshwater and brackish environments (e.g., ''Neopomacentrus aquadulcis'', ''N. taeniurus'', ''Pomacentrus taeniometopon'', ''Stegastes otophorus''). They are noted for their hardy constitutions and territoriality. Many are brightly colored, so they are popular in aquaria. Around 385 species are classified in this family, in about 29 genera. Of these, members of two genera, ''Amphiprion'' and ''Premnas'' (subfamily Amphiprioninae), are commonly called clownfish or anemonefish, while members of other genera (e.g., ''Pomacentrus'') are commonly called damselfish. The members of this family are classified in four subfamilies: Amphiprioninae, Chrominae, Lepidozyginae, and Pomacentrinae. ==Etymology== The name of the family is derived from the Greek words; ''poma'' roughly translates to the English "cover", referring to the fishes' opercula, and ''kentron'' is Greek for sting. The name refers to the serrations found along the margins of the opercular bones in many members of this family.〔
