| Etymology of generic noun |
Greek, prio = to saw + Greek,lepis = scale (Ref. 45335).
|
| Etymology of specific epithet |
Origin of name unclear; either from Greek 'eugenes' for well-born or noble, or less likely from Greek 'eu' for true or original and Latin 'genius', the protecting attendant spirit of a person or place. Both interpretations do not seem especially appropriate for this drab little fish (Ref. 10753).
