Saucereye porgy : ウィキペディア英語版 | Saucereye porgy
The saucereye porgy, ''Calamus calamus'', is an ocean-going species of fish in the family Sparidae. In Bermuda, they are also known as the goat's head porgy. In Jamaica, they are known as the Porgi grunt and the sugareye porgy. They may also be known simply by the name Porgy in several other Caribbean islands. Saucereye porgies are considered to be minor gamefishes and when caught are marketed both fresh and frozen. == Taxonomy and naming == The Saucereye porgy was first described by the French zoologist, Achille Valenciennes in a 22-volume work entitled ''Histoire naturelle des poissons'' (Natural History of Fishes), which was a collaboration with fellow zoologist, Georges Cuvier. It was first described as ''Pagellus calamus'', being placed in the genus ''Pagellus''. It was since moved into ''Calamus'', a genus named for the mythological Calamus, or ''Kalamos''. It was so named because the Calamus of myth allowed himself to drown in a river, after the death of his lover, and transform into aquatic plants that young saucereye porgies make their homes in.
