From editor or global species database
Etymology [The species was named after the Russian scientist Elias Metschnikoff (= Elias Mečnikow = Elias Metschnikow) who studied kinorhynchs about 20 years before Reinhard. - The name Metschnikow was Latinized to Metschnikowius with its genitive case Metschnikowii.] [details]
Spelling Reinhard (1887, p. 446) emended the species name from E. metschnikowii to E. metschnikoffii. [details]
Taxonomic remark The species was originally published with a capital letter, which does not agree with the ICZN (Article 28.). Correction of the spelling to a small letter does not require a new author of a species (ICZN, Article 50.4.). Therefore, the same species with the same author would appear twice in WoRMS, one written with a capital letter, the other one with a small letter. It was decided to provide only the name with the small letter and to add this comment in order to explain the situation. [details]
