Etymology: Eviota: No etymology given, suggested by Christopher Scharpt: from Latin 'eu' for 'true' and 'iota' for anything very small, in combination 'truly very small' referring to it as being the smallest vertebrate at the time it has benn described by Jenkins (thus, making the suggestion by Scharpt plausible; notata: Named for the large, dark marks on the head and nape (Latin word 'nota' meaning mark).

Short description
Κλείδες προσδιορισμού | Μορφολογία | Μορφομετρία
Ραχιαίες άκανθες (συνολικά) : 7; Μαλακές ραχιαίες ακτίνες (συνολικά) : 6 - 7; Εδρικές άκανθες: 1; Μαλακές εδρικές ακτίνες: 6 - 7; Σπόνδυλοι: 26.
