Etymology |
The newly discovered species is named in honor of Professor Shanyi Zhou of Guangxi Normal University, in commemoration of his exceptional contributions to the field of ant taxonomy in China. The name zhoui was created by adding the singular Latin genitive case suffix -i to the last name of a male person. The name is unchangeable. |
