| Etymology | The new species name “raglai” is given in a reference to the Raglai people, an ethnic group living in the forested mountain areas of Khanh Hoa Province of Vietnam, including the Song Giang River Valley where the new species was found. In Raglai language, the self-designating word “raglai” also means “forest”, stressing the importance of the tropical forest ecosystem for this people. To reflect this polysemy, the new species name is given as a noun in apposition and hence is invariable. |
