Etymology: Blachea: Named for J. Blanche, in recognition of his many contributions to the knowledge on anguilliform fishes, both adults and larvae; longicaudalis: Named for its highly elongated caudal section, typical of the species.
Eponymy: Jacques Blache (1922–1994) was a French ichthyologist who worked for the Office de la Recherche Scientifique et Technique d’Outre-Mer (ORSTOM) in Kampuchea (1948–1953) and in various African countries including Chad, Congo and Senegal (1953–1973). [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.
