From editor or global species database
Etymology  Scalibregma beaufortensis is named for the Beaufort Sea in the Arctic Ocean where it was collected. For neuter genus gender agreement the correct adjectival name must be Scalibregma beaufortense (-is masc & fem, -e neuter) and not 'beaufortensis' as published by the author. [details]

Spelling Note that the author published the species-group name as 'beaufortensis' instead of the correct neuter 'beaufortense'. For a neuter genus gender agreement the correct adjectival name must be Scalibregma beaufortense (-is -is masc & fem, -e neuter). This is a mandatory correction under the Code (article 31.2).
