(search, aspiration) in reference to the intense search for riffle beetles at Maliau Basin which was a big quest for the citizen scientists involved in the project. Additionally, the new species is named for the Dutch popular science magazine QUEST of which journalist Paul Serail joined the first taxon expedition. The word is used as a noun in apposition.
