Etymology: Bythaelurus: bythos (Gr.), depths of the sea, referring to its deepwater habitat; ailouros (Gr.), cat, probably an allusion to the vernacular “catshark,” so named for its cat-like eyes (See ETYFish); naylori: In honor of Gavin Naylor, College of Charleston (Charleston, South Carolina, USA), for contributions and innovative molecular research into the higher classification of chondrichthyans and for his support of the junior author’s work in the Southwest Indian Ridge of the southwestern Indian Ocean (See ETYFish).
Eponymy: Dr Gavin Naylor is Program Director of the Florida Program for Shark Research at the Florida Museum of Natural History, where he is also Curator and Professor. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.
