Etymology: Hydrolagus: hydro-, combining form of hydor (Gr.), water; lagos (Gr.), hare, i.e., “water rabbit,” probably referring to three pairs of tooth plates, which tend to protrude from the mouth like a rabbit’s incisors. (See ETYFish);  matallanasi: In honor of Jesús Matallanas Garcia, University of Barcelona (Spain), for his “extensive work and tireless dedication to ichthyology”. (See ETYFish).
