Etymology: robertsoni:Named in recognition of the contributions by D. Ross Robertson of the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute to the understanding of the diversity of shorefishes of the New World and his generous facilitation of collecting in Panama. Eponymy: Edwin Chapin Starks (1867–1932) was an American ichthyologist who was an authority on the osteology of fish. [...] Dr David Ross Robertson (d: 1946) is an ichthyologist whose bachelor’s degree (1966) and doctorate (1974) were awarded by The University of Queensland, Australia.
