Etymology: Paracaesio: Greek, para = the side of + Latin, caesium = bluish grey (Ref. 45335).
Eponymy: Robert Stone caught two specimens of this new species in Fiji (1981). Nothing more is said in the original text, but presumably this is the same Robert Stone as the Pacific Islands Forum Fisheries Agency (FFA) Development Advisor of that name. (Ref. 128868), visit book page.
