Badidae (Chameleonfishes)
Etymology: Badis: 'badis' is presumably a Bengali local name, possibly derived from 'bhedo' or 'bheda', but it lacks a proper reference. Probably incorrect etymology (J. Müller, pers. comm., April 2021, after information from native speakers); ferrarisi: Named for C.J. Ferraris, Jr.
Eponymy: Dr Carl James Ferraris Jr (d: 1950) is an American ichthyologist and fish taxonomist who is a recognised authority on catfish. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.
