Etymology: Caulophryne: Greek, 'kaulos' or 'caulis' = stem + Greek, 'phryne' = toad (according to Goode and Bean (1896): "a 'phryne'-like fish with the cephalic tentacle supported on a stemlike base") ( Ref. 86949); jordani: jordani named for David Starr Jordan, possibly America's ichthyologist (Ref. 4525).
Eponymy: Dr David Starr Jordan (1851–1931) was a leading American ichthyologist, physician, educator, peace activist and believer in eugenics; moreover, he was founding President of Stanford University. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.
