Generic name originally spelled as Caspiolosa, but should have been Caspialosa after Eschmeyer (CofF 1998: Ref. 26282).
  Etymology of generic noun  
Composed form Caspian sea + Latin, alausa = a fish cited by Ausonius and Latin, halec = pickle, dealing with the Greek word hals = salt; it is also the old Saxon name for shad = "alli" ; 1591 (Ref. 45335).
