Etymology: Eucinostomus: Greek, eu = good + Greek, kyon = dog + Greek, stoma = mouth (Ref. 45335).
Eponymy: Howard Wesley Curran is a biologist whose PhD dissertation: A systematic revision of the gerrid fishes referred to the genus Eucinostomus, with a discussion of their distribution and speciation (1942) concerned the same genus of fish. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.
