Sebastes flammeus was first formally described in 1904 as Sebastodes flammeus by the American ichthyologists David Starr Jordan and Edwin Chapin Starks with the type locality given as Misaki in Japan. [2] It has been suggested by some studies that this taxon is a junior synonym of S. iracundus . [3] authorities classify this species in the subgenus Acutomentum. The specific name flammeus means "flame red". [4]
