A variant or alternative scientific name relating to the auchenia genus or to neck structures in anatomy.
Possibly from Greek 'auchenios' meaning 'of the neck,' combined with Latin scientific naming conventions, or a variant of auchenia.
Scientific naming can get messy—sometimes researchers create multiple names for the same thing, which is why you find variants like 'auchenium' and 'auchenia' both floating around in old texts, confusing everyone!
