Etymology: Oreoglanis: Greek, oreos = mountain+Greek, glanis = Latin, aurum = gold + Greek, glanis = a fish that can eat the bait without touching the hook; a cat fish (Ref. 45335); hypsiura: Specific name from the Greek hypos which means high, and oura which means tail, in reference to the relatively deeper caudal peduncle compared to O. delacouri.
