Etymology: Knipowitschia: Because of N.M.Knipowitsch, a zoologist and Russian ichthyologist from the Academy of Sciences. Expeditions in "Pomor" and "Pervosvanniy" ships to Azov and Black sea (1898-1908).
Eponymy: Nikolai Mikhailovich Knipovich (also given as Knipowitsch) (1862–1939) was a Russian oceanographer, marine zoologist and ichthyologist. [...] Byblis was a mythical figure, the twin sister of Caunos, who founded the ancient city Caunos on the southwest Anatolian coast. The ruins of this city are located close to Lake Köycegiz, Turkey, the type locality. (Ref. 128868), visit book page.
