Etymology: Abbottina: Named for James Francis Abbott, formerly a professor in the Japanese Military Academy at Etajima, who assisted Professors Jordan and Snyder in their work on Lake Biwa, Lake Yogb, Yodo River, and at Tsuruga and Misaki (D. Hollombe, pers.comm., 2014 November).
Eponymy: Dr James Francis Abbott (1876–1926) was an American zoologist who also became a diplomat and a special adviser on Japanese affairs. [...] Bình Nguyễn helped the author, Nguyễn Văn Hảo, of the Research Institute for Aquaculture, to collect the holotype. We have been unable to throw further light on who this person is and whether they are related to the author. (Ref. 128868), visit book page.
