Ciconia alba; oculorum ambitu nudo, nigro; remigibus nigricantibus; rectricibus candidis. . . .CICONIA ALBA" (Brisson 1760): based on "Ciconia" of Gessner 1555, "Ciconia" or "Ciconia alba" of numerous other references, "Ardea alba" of Linnaeus 1746, and Ardea ciconia Linnaeus, 1758; "Ciconia Brisson, Orn., 1, 1760, p. 48; 5, 1760, p. 361. Type, by tautonymy, Ciconia = Ardea Ciconia Linné." (Peters, 1931, I, p. 129).

asiae / asiatica / asiaticus
L. Asiaticus Asiatic < Gr. Ασιατικος Asiatikos Asiatic < Ασια Asia. The Romans generally and indiscriminately applied the name Asia to Asia Minor (Turkey or Anatolia), the more extensive eastern and southern portions of the great continent being known as Asia Maior. In nomenclature the toponym is nearly synonymous with India.
