Etymology | The specific epithet hamidyi is in reference to the Indonesian herpetologist, Dr. Amir Hamidy. He has spent time a lot of teaching herpetology to the younger generations in Indonesia as well as making significant contributions to the conservation of the Indonesian herpetofauna and its diversity. He also is one of the founders of the Indonesian herpetological scociety and today is its president. |
