|FraM=From "amphibien" (amphibian) and "tubercule" (tuber). The idea behind this portmanteau is that it is referencing how Wollyhops usually live underground and don't get any sun, like tubers. It could also be referring to the fact that they suck their prey's body fluids through their undersides, similarly to how roots get their nutrients from the ground. | |FraM=From "amphibien" (amphibian) and "tubercule" (tuber).
