Etymology: ubirajarai: From the author, Wilson Costa: "the name ubirajarai is in honour of Ubirajara Martins, entomologist at Museu de Zoologia, Universidade de Sao Paulo, professor of principles of taxonomy, who was teacher and friend during my early formation in Systematics, providing great enthusiasm for studying taxonomy of killifishes about 30 years ago" (Ref. 92338).
Eponymy: Dr Ubirajara Ribeiro ‘Bira’ Martins de Souza (1932–2015) was a Brazilian entomologist who spent his career researching at the Museum of Zoology of the University of São Paulo (1959–2015) which had awarded his PhD (1975) and where he became a [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.
