Etymology: Centrobranchus: Greek, kentron = sting + Greek, brangchia = gills (Ref. 45335).
Eponymy: Capt. A F Andréas, who is described as a ‘tireless collector’, collected this and other marine fishes for the University of Copenhagen Zoological Museum. He did not confine himself to ichthyology, but collected other taxa and also has [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD50 = 0.5625 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01000 (0.00244 - 0.04107), b=3.04 (2.81 - 3.27), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.4 ±0.45 se; based on food items.
Resilience (Ref. 120179): High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 433 [149, 1,365] mg/100g; Iron = 1.96 [0.81, 4.90] mg/100g; Protein = 16.3 [14.2, 18.4] %; Omega3 = 0.497 [0.198, 1.382] g/100g; Selenium = 47 [17, 156] μg/100g; VitaminA = 112 [27, 533] μg/100g; Zinc = 2.01 [1.17, 3.31] mg/100g (wet weight);
