Etymology: Mccoskerichthys: Because of John McCosker, ichthyologist and film diver + Greek, ichthys = fish.
Eponymy: Dr John Edward McCosker (d: 1945) is an ichthyologist and evolutionary biologist who is Senior Scientist and first Professor of Aquatic Research at California Academy of Sciences, San Francisco. [...] Sandra McCosker is an anthropologist and was the wife of ichthyologist John Edward McCosker (q.v.). She participated in the first collection of this species. (It might have been expected that the binomial would be sandrae, but the r is omitted) (Ref. 128868), visit book page.
