Gender, form, and etymology
Etymology:
Combination of the Latin words “duo” (two) and “appendix” (appendage) as well as the ending -dactylus which is commonly used in Tridactylidae. It refers to the absence of the paraproctal processes of the genus, meaning there are only two and not four (as usually in Tridactylidae) abdominal appendages.
