Etymology. The species epithet hermannkunzi is a masculine noun in the genitive case. It is named after the late Hermann Kunz (6.6.1935 – 5.1.2020), the father of Bernd Kunz (Langenburg, Germany), who has provided financial support for the first author’s field work via the International Dragonfly Fund (IDF). Bernd Kunz selected this epithet in gratitude for the lifelong support he received from his father for his odonatological activities.
