Gender, form, and etymology
Etymology:
Arbitrary combination of letters, which mixes the Spanish noun "Unicornio" with the Latin diminutive ending "-ella". Unicorns are fantastic creatures believed to live deep inside the remotest forests, thus, only seldom seen; the epithet alludes to both the habitat of this katydid and its sporadic findings.
