Etymology Grube provides the Greek original and the German equivalent for his new Latin genus name, Oxydromus (see the image tab). His translation is "schnell laufen" = "fast run" and "dromus" derives from Greek "dromos" with meanings relating to race and running. It is likely Grube or his collectors had observed the swift movement of live Oxydromus worms when disturbed. Oxydromus is masculine gender [details]
Grammatical gender Oxydromus is masculine gender. This is evident from its suffix and its etymology, and its treatment as masculine by almost all authors. Only Oxydromus brevipalpa Hartmann-Schröder, 1959 and Oxydromus digitifera Çinar, Dağli & Erdoğan-Dereli, 2022 appear to have incorrect suffixes. O. digitifera should be O. digitifer as the adjective is 'fer, fera, ferum' for masculine, feminine, neuter usages. [details]
Homonymy Oxydromus Grube, 1855 was for a time thought to be a junior homonym to Oxydromus Schlegel, 1854, due to listing of that name in Nomenclator Zoologicus, but Schlegel's name was actually always just an invalid subsequent misspelling of Ocydromus in Aves. [details]
