Nomenclature
Lorenz Oken (Okenfuss) (August 1, 1779 – August 11, 1851), was a German biologist, physiologist and naturalist. Oken's lectures were wide-ranging, and were highly regarded at the time. The subjects included natural philosophy, general natural history, zoology, comparative anatomy, the physiology of man, of animals and of plants.
Dorsum Oken is an unofficial name from D.Caes for the wrinkle ridge on the floor of Oken (thus named since 2015).
