Etymology: Eviota: No etymology given, suggested by Christopher Scharpt: from Latin 'eu' for 'true' and 'iota' for anything very small, in combination 'truly very small' referring to it as being the smallest vertebrate at the time it has benn described by Jenkins (thus, making the suggestion by Scharpt plausible; mikiae: Named for Miki Tonzuka of Bali, Indonesia, for her assistance with fish collections during the Weh Islands survey (Ref. 44113).
Eponymy: Miki Tonozuka of Bali, Indonesia, helped to collect the type. She ran ‘Dive & Dive’ with her late husband Takamasa Tonozuka (q.v.). She was honoured for her assistance in the field during the Weh Island survey. (Also see Tonozuka) (Ref. 128868), visit book page.
