sterna
Mod. L. sterna tern.

repressa
L. repressus  restrained, held back  < reprimere  to hold back; "THE tenth species of the genus Sterna in the Cat. B. Brit. Mus. xxv. p. 69 is called Sterna albigena, and on p. xiii Sterna albigena Licht. Neither the name of the species nor that of the author can be maintained.  ... Reichenbach figured a bird in the "Mus. Goetz." with huge black feet (the toes as long as the beak!), apparently white underside, and the size of Sterna bergii, i.e. 19.9in. in length, a point which must have escaped Howard Saunders. It is impossible to identify this figure with what is now called S. albigena, and the latter must therefore have a new name. I consequently call it Sterna repressa nom. nov. This name is meant as a new term for the S. albigena of Cat. B. Brit. Mus. xxv, p. 69, of Reichenow and other recent authors" (Hartert 1916) (Sterna).
