Nomenclature It is likely that the name has been misspelled by the authors and should have been 'hongdoensis', as it was named after the geographic location Hongdo Island. Geographic names have a preferred ending as -ensis. A corrected spelling as hongdoensis was used in the checlist of the Korean Fauna (Anonymous. (2017). However, the misspelling, is not certainly a lapsus calami, because it was repeated five times in the paper, so there is no mandatory change warranted. [details]
