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 in the Cephalopholis clade, thus suggesting that the species should be included in this genus and referred to as Cephalopholis rogaa.[4]
