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.; notata: Named for the large, dark marks on the head and nape (Latin word 'nota' meaning mark)..

Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale) : 7; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 6 - 7; Spine anali: 1; Raggi anali molli: 6 - 7; Vertebre: 26. This species is distinguished from its congeners by the following characters: nape with a series of 3 prominent dark transverse marks, the first 2 of which are separated into enlarged spots dorsolaterally; dorsal to anal fin-ray formula 7/7; complete cephalic sensory pore system; pectoral-fin rays 10-14 always branched; first dorsal fin not elongate (Ref. 92021).
