Etymology: euryptera: Named for R.L. Bolin in recognition of his contribution to the understanding of cottid systematics. Gender: feminine. Euryptera is derived from the Greek eurys meaning "broad" and pteron meaning "wing," referring to the broad-based pectoral fins.
Eponymy: Dr Rolf Ling Bolin (1901–1973) was an American ichthyologist and marine biologist who was a specialist in lanternfish. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.
