Etymology Authors: Syllis thylacine is "named after the Tasmanian Wolf (Thylacinus cynocephalus), an extinct carnivorous marsupial, which also had distinctive stripes on its back." The authors do not indicate whether the epithet is a noun or an adjective. It seems to be a non-Latinized noun in apposition. The Thylacinus genus was named from the Greek word meaning pouch, presumably because the species was a pouched mammal. It has nothing to do with having stripes. [details]
