1. Etymology: The epithet globicephala refers to the genus of the long-finned pilot whale [Globicephala melas (Traill, 1809)] as the apices of Eunotia globicephala bear a strong resemblance to the head and rostrum of this whale when seen in profile.published in: Taylor, J.C., Cocquyt, C. & Walsh, G. 2024: Tropical African diatoms from the Eunotia asterionelloides (Bacillariophyta) species complex, with descriptions of new species. – Plant Ecology and Evolution 157(1): 88-99: 94, fig. 5, 6
