    I wondered if the species had been named in honor of Eric Clapton, but no, it's just a town in Australia... Posted 2 years ago

      You can tell right away if it is named after a person, if after a man named Clapton, would have been claptoni :D
      And the name being Claptonense, right away tells you it was named after a locality.       Posted 2 years ago

        Aah I can see you've been involved in naming new species!
        And I just checked, he does have a frog named after him: Physalaemus claptoni         Posted 2 years ago
