Etymology Not stated. Chávez-López et al (2025) state that Anobothrella is formed from the Greco-Latin word Anobothrus with the Latin diminutive suffix -ella (feminine). The derivation of Anobothrus (masculine) was not stated by Levinsen but is a combination of ano- (over, above) and masculine Greek -bothros (trench). How this was intended is not possible to determine. [details]
