| Comment | |
| Etymology | Derived from Pali, a Middle Indo-Aryan dialect, and the source of Sinhala and several east Indian languages, meaning bronze, the overall colour of dorsum of the new species. Tammanna is also the point where King Vijaya (543–504 B.C.), who founded the first Sinhalese empire, landed on the island, close to the Tammanna Estate, where we collected additional material of the new species. |
