Nomenclatural Notes
[epublished]

Etymology: the specific epithet comes from the Latin 'prominens' (meaning prominent) and 'minor' (meaning smaller or lesser), referring to the prominence of the minor veins which are so outstanding on this species in comparison to the normal minor lateral veins in the section.
