Etymology: Cymatognathus: Name from the Greek 'kymatos' (wave) and 'gnathos' (jaw), referring to the characteristic wavy upper contour of the lower jaw; aureolateralis: Name from Latin 'aurum' (gold) and 'lateralis' (side), referring to the bright yellow marking laterally on body.

Short description Identification keys | Morphology | Morphometrics
This species is distinguished by the following characters: posterior tip of coronoid process of dentary is abruptly depressed so teeth on anterior portion appear as an elevated patch, thus creating a wavy contour on lower jaw; anterior tip of upper jaw is not notched; posterior nostril horizontally slit-like (Ref. 115558).
Depth unknown but specimens were collected as bycatch of hand-lining targeting Priacanthus etelis and Pristipomoides, which are reported to occur at depths between 15 and 400 m. The third author recently obtained a video clip that clearly shows this species in situ was taken off Lembeh Island, near Bitung, North Sulawesi, Indonesia, at 199 m on 12 November 2015, by an ROV as part of an ongoing survey of the Indonesian coelacanth (Ref. 115558).

Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD50 = 1.0001 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01122 (0.00514 - 0.02450), b=3.04 (2.87 - 3.21), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.5 ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (12 of 100).
