Here´s some possibly additional info on ...
gaini as in:
● the subspecies Sterna vittata gaini MURPHY 1938 (here, p.13):
Note: those years are based only on what´s written; here or/alt. here. His other name (the "K."?), titles (Dr./botanist?), etc., etc. are all unknown to me ... he´s not one of "my guys", thereby not researched at all (by me). I just happened to tumbled upon the book/books above.
Thereby; take the above, for what it´s worth!
If anything ...
