Etymology The genus name was derived from Greek πυκνός pyknos, dense, sturdy, and from Greek phyo, let develop, made by nature, a common suffix of homalorhagid genera, and referred to the remotely rectanguar outline, which was opposite to the more slender, cigar-shaped habitus of Echinoderes, one of the few genera known in 19th century.
