This species is of historical significance in the world of zoology, because it represents the first species name officially registered in ZooBank. ZooBank is intended to be the official online registry for zoological nomneclature, under the auspices of the International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature (ICZN). It was launched on January 1st, 2008 -- excatly 250 years (to the day) after the officially recognized start of Zoological Nomenclature -- the publication of the 10th Edition of Systema Naturae by Carl Linnaeus. Also, the original description of this species was included in a specially formatted document, the electronic version of which includes nearly 200 embedded links to resources on the web. It was generated to exemplify the potential of electronic documents and the internet for allowing easy and immediate access to supplementary information (analagous in many ways to the Encyclopedia of Life initiative!) Besides its taxonomic significance, this species (which was named in honor of the BBC documentary film production that facilitated the capture of the type specimens) is very striking. When viewed underwater with a dive light, this species is incredibly beautiful, the blue spots on each scale contrasting with the black background, such that each spot appears like a bright blue LED light on every scale of the fish.
