Cercamia is a genus of fishes in the family Apogonidae, the cardinalfishes. They are native to the Pacific and Indian Oceans.
Species
[edit]The recognized species in this genus are:[2]
- Cercamia cladara J. E. Randall & C. L. Smith, 1988
- Cercamia eremia (G. R. Allen, 1987) (glassy cardinalfish)
- Cercamia melanogaster G. R. Allen, Erdmann & Mahardini, 2015 (blackbelly cardinalfish) [3]
The former genus Apogonoides is now thought to be synonymous with Cercamia.[4] The extinct species C. cottreaci (described as Apogonoides cottreaci) is known from the Late Miocene of Algeria.[5]
