English .

Recent molecular analyses have challenged the placement of the
redmouth grouper in the genus Aethaloperca , in a study based on five different genes this species fell within the Cephalopholis clade, thus suggesting that the species should be included in this genus and referred to as Cephalopholis rogaa .
