In Rüppell 1829.
  Etymology of specific epithet  
From the Latin "auritu" (literally "listening"), referring to the local Arabian name of this species in Egypt, "schilbe oudney", which means "schilbe with ear" (those "ears" probably refer to the large rounded pectoral fins just behind the head)(Ref. 43912).
