From editor or global species database
Etymology Authors: "epithet “angulus” is the Latin for “corner”, as a reference to the type locality, Corner Inlet." Editor (GBR) comment: It seems likely the inlet was named 'Corner' because of the bend in coastal geomorphology. The epithet 'angulus' is an obviously masculine noun paired with a feminine genus, and must be treated as an unchanging noun in apposition. [details]
