Etymology: Hippopotamyrus: Greek, ippos = horse + Greek,potamos = river + greek, myros = the male of morey eel (Ref. 45335).
Eponymy: In Roman mythology, Castor and his brother Pollux were the heavenly twins. However, in Latin Castor also means ‘beaver’, and the mormyrid was so named because of the teeth which protrude from its lower jaw, like a beaver’s incisors. (Ref. 128868), visit book page.
