Eponymy: Dr Yasuhiko Taki (1931-2020) was an Japanese ichthyologist and researcher ‘…who contributed very much’ to the study of loaches, according to the etymology. [...] Eos in Greek mythology was the goddess of the dawn. In zoology, her name is generally applied to species that have ‘rosy’ coloration, sometimes combined with orange or yellowish hues that might be reminiscent of a sunrise.
