Dear all,
I am hoping someone has access to this very short work, and could send or direct me to a scan or images of it:
Habeeb, H. (1973) Notes on water-mites. V. Leaflets of Acadian Biology, 54, 1-2.
I'm trying to see if there is information on the etymology of a species named therein:
Ledermuelleria Najeeba Habeeb, 1973 [apparently given with that capitalization]
I am thinking that this species, found in the USA (Cayuga, presumably NY), is named for a collector/colleague of the author, and should not be treated as adjectival, although it has been so treated in at least a couple of recent works [as Eustigmaeus najeebus (Habeeb, 1973)]. Hopefully the work gives the etymology (although I am doubtful).
Many thanks!
