Etymology: Neochirus: Name from the Greek nέaς (neo, means new), and cϵίr (cheı́r, means finger, hand), referring to the split from Dendrochirus.
Eponymy: Captain Barber found the type specimen in plankton during a trip from Honolulu to Cape Horn (1896–1897). We have been unable to identify him further. (Ref. 128868), visit book page.
