Etymology: Chlopsis: Greek, chloea = green + Greek, opsis = appearance (Ref. 45335); slusserorum: Named in honor of Marion and Willis Slusser, for their keen interest in natural history and generous support of research and education (Ref. 47953).
Eponymy: Marion Bridgman Slusser (1914–2013) and Willis ‘Bill’ Stanfield Slusser (1915–2010) were enthusiastic amateur naturalists, keen birdwatchers and botanists. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Descrição suscinta
Chaves de identificação | Morfologia | Morfometria
Vértebras: 138. Differentiated by its high vertebral count combined with its distinctive pigmentation - light tan, dorso-lateral surface of body overlaid with a series of circa 30-35 dark brown blotches; blotches either do not extend to the dorsal surface (anterior to dorsal origin or near tail) or only weakly extend to the dorsal fin base, which is lightly pigmented for most of its length; blotches do not line up in pairs with blotches on other side of body (Ref. 47953).
