Etymology "This species is named after Dr. Alan Kohn who donated the type specimens collected in Guam as part of his studies with Conus snails. Dr. Kohn has been very supportive of polychaete studies in the western Pacific and a kind and generous host when the author (J.H.B-B.) was a visiting faculty in his laboratory at the University of Washington" (Magalhães et al., 2019: 231).
