Some say that the name comes from the spines that protrude slightly between the eyes, and it hurts when touched, so it is called “eye pain flounder.” Another theory is that there is a plate-like protrusion between the eyes.

It is also called “Medaka” because of its high eyes.

The scientific name “cornutus” comes from the Latin word meaning “horned”.
