Etymology: Lampanyctus: Greek, lampas, -ados = torch + Greek, nykte = night (Ref. 45335); wisneri: Named in honor of Robert L. Wisner, Scripps Institution of Oceanography, in recognition of his contributions to the systematics of myctophids and other oceanic fishes (Ref. 36121).
Eponymy: Robert ‘Bob’ Lester Wisner (1912–2005) was an American ichthyologist. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.
