Etymology: langi:Named for Michael A. Lang, Director of the Smithsonian Marine Science Network (MSN) and Smithsonian Science Diving Program, in gratitude for the support MSN has provided for our Caribbean fish diversity studies and in recognition of the contributions Michael has made to science diving. Eponymy: Edwin Chapin Starks (1867–1932) was an American ichthyologist who was an authority on the osteology of fish. [...] Dr Michael A Lang is a marine biologist, environmental physiologist, author and lecturer as well as a diver trainer. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.
