Etymology: Neochanna: Greek, neos = new + Greek, channe, -es = an anchovy (Ref. 45335).
Eponymy: F Cleaver of West Ulverstone, Tasmania, discovered the holotype (1933) burrowed inside the root of a eucalyptus tree, where it had been aestivating. We have not been able to discover more about him. (Ref. 128868), visit book page.
