Etymology P.356-57 "The crystalline Johnstonella. I have pleasure of announcing a new animal of much elegance, which I believe to be of a hitherto unrecognised form. I shall describe it under the appellation of Johnstonella Catharina. (Plate XXV)." [...] I venture respectfully to appropriate to this marine animal, the surname and christian name of Mrs. Catharine Johnston, as a personal tribute of gratitude for the great aid which I have derived from her engravings in the study of zoophytology." However, Gosse got Catherine Johnston's name wrong. It is Catherine, not Catharine. [details]
