Nomenclatural Notes
(epublished)
Remarks
Etymology: The specific epithet derives from the Malagasy name “Tsaratanana”, highest massif of Madagascar, integral nature reserve, and single locality known for the species; Tsaratanana is derived from “tsara”, beautiful, good, generous, and “tanàna”, town, village, hamlet, and the whole word means the beautiful village (Lalao Andriamahefarivo, pers. com., 2020).
