Etymology edit
The fish is named in honor of marine biologist Harvey R. Bullis, Jr. (1924-1992), to whom many American ichthyologists, the author included, are indebted for supplying valuable marine collections from the cruises of the Oregon and other vessels of the United States Fish and Wildlife Service, including the type specimen of this species.[4]
