Etymology: Schedophilus: Name from Greek words 'phylos' (Φίλος), t) meaning 'one who likes' and "s 'shedia' (Σχεδία) which means raft; literally means 'the one who likes rafts'. This probably refers to the lifestyle ot the juveniles of this genus (Michail Ragousis, mar10091@marine.aegean.gr, pers. Comm. 01/16) which are epipelagic and associate with floating jellyfish.
Eponymy: Charles Vélain (1845–1925) was a French geographer and geologist, and particularly an expert on volcanism. He took part in a mission to Saint Paul Island (1874) in the southern Indian Ocean, which is the type locality of this fish. (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 10.2 - 19.1, mean 14 °C (based on 193 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5039 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00891 (0.00403 - 0.01972), b=3.10 (2.91 - 3.29), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 4.2 ±0.57 se; based on food items.

Widerstandsfähigkeit (Ref. 120179): niedrig, Verdopplung der Population dauert 4,5 - 14 Jahre. (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): High vulnerability (60 of 100).

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 18 [7, 40] mg/100g; Iron = 0.301 [0.138, 0.809] mg/100g; Protein = 18.9 [16.9, 20.8] %; Omega3 = 0.176 [0.072, 0.406] g/100g; Selenium = 15.4 [5.8, 39.5] μg/100g; VitaminA = 25.9 [3.5, 202.1] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.375 [0.213, 0.736] mg/100g (wet weight);
