Jiří Mlíkovský has kindly advised me that tucinka is a rare Moravian Czech pet-name term, used for female pet animals and, occasionally, for young girls. The name is restricted to Moravia, where von Seilern und Aspang lived. I have suggested to him that it may refer to Helene, the count's daughter born in 1913 (the year of the descriptive article for Capito tucinkae), and I await his reply with interest.
