Özet
Here, we present the etymology of the Latin binomials of all Turkish amphibian genera and species. According to our review, the names are mostly given according to the characteristics and features of the species or in honor of a person. Reviewing the etymologies of the Latin names of amphibian species living in Türkiye and compiling information and heritage will be very useful, especially for Turkish herpetology.
